Yes. However, I find the format for books are cookie cutter. Only the names and places change.

I really enjoyed this book. Recently read Where the Crawdads Sing and highly recommend it.

I very much enjoy books of this type. Would recommend Case Histories by Kate Atkinson, The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware, The Silent Wife by A. Harrison and of course, Gone Girl.

I really enjoyed this book, even though it was very intense. A friend of mine, Carl Vonderau, has written a book called Murderabilia. It is also a thriller. If you liked this book, you might consider his novel. Thanks for the other suggestions!

Yes, I do love reading suspenseful novels because it keeps you guessing.

I think (hope) that not too many books have the amount of child sexual abuse that was in this book – and no trigger warnings either.

I enjoy reading novels.
This one gave me vibes of both The girl on the train and A simple favor.

I love suspenseful thrillers! Some books like this are anything by liane moriarty, I loved the silent patient and B A Paris and Karin slaughter are fantastic authors. I’ve been obsessed with this type of book for over two years now. I finished this book in less than a day. It was a great read and glad I took a chance and downloaded.

I like suspenseful novels but my next read will probably be something a little lighter. My heart is still hurting from this one.

I read many different genre, but love a good thriller. Just finished A Woman of No Importance. It was a bit tedious but an important book to read especially considering today’s political climate.

I recently finished The Good Sister by Sally Hepworth, which I loved. Another great read is The Push by Ashley Audrain.

Did not care for ThePush, going on and on and nothing happening until the predictable end. LikedThe Good Sister

Only when I don’t know what’s going to happen. I really hate when I can predict a train wreck and it just happens.
