This week's theme: Genre Freebie.
I love THRILLERS! Especially when there are unexpected twists, a bit of edge and darkness, and some good psychological suspense. So I went through my past blog posts and chose 10 of My Favorite Thrillers:
If you've never read a thriller and want to give one a try, I recommend any
and all of these! I also list more thrillers I've loved on my Memorable Reads page.
Happy Reading!
I'm terrified of thrillers, so I'm fascinated with others (and there are many!) who love them best. Maybe one day I won't be such a scaredy-cat.
ReplyDeleteThrillers can be very dark and suspenseful...and not always the best books to read before going to bed. ;D
DeleteI enjoyed Good Girls Lie. I am not familiar with the others on your list, but I will definitely check them out. Great post.
ReplyDeleteThey're all really good! Thanks for commenting. :D
DeleteI was on a thriller kick last year, and I have found a new love for them. I will have to read some of these.
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to let me know some of your favorite thrillers. I'm always looking for more.
Delete#6 is an author on my list to try this year. I love seeing their book on your list. That's the one I want to try.
ReplyDeleteEllison has a new one out that looks really good. And Good Girls Lie was amazing! I really liked that one. :D
DeleteI didn't know you read that many thrillers. I don't even read normal crime stories, so I would have had very little to put on that list. And, needless to say, I haven't read any of your books. But I'm glad you enjoyed them.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT this week.
My list could have been much longer! :D
DeleteI think that's a problem we all have. LOL
DeleteGreat list, Lark! I've read several of these but will try to make note of others you recommend. And, yes, I definitely consider myself a thriller reader, among other types of books. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat's me...a reader of thrillers...and mysteries...and romance...and everything else, too. ;D
DeleteGreat picks. Regine

Thanks, Regine! :D
DeleteGreat list, Lark! Lots of these are on my wishlist. :D
ReplyDeleteThey're all really good!
DeleteYou know I love thrillers too! I enjoyed A Dark Lure and Into the Black Nowhere. Will look up these other ones. Thanks for the recommends! :)
ReplyDeleteAny time! You're always adding good books to my TBR list; it's nice to be able to return the favor. :D
DeleteI enjoy thrillers as well. Thanks for your interesting list. More for my own TBR list.
ReplyDeleteLike you need for to add to your TBR list. ;D
DeleteI have yet to read a thriller but maybe some day. These look thrilling though I only seen the covers of #6,#9.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day
Thanks, Lissa! #6, Good Girls Lie, would actually be a good one to start with. It's set at a boarding school.
DeleteI'm generally too easily thrilled to read very many thrillers. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteI get that! I don't like graphic or gory, but I do like edgy and suspenseful. :D
DeleteI've got a bit of a love/hate relationship with thrillers. Either I absolutely adore them and they're some of my favorite books of the year or I'm very meh about them. I haven't read any of these so I'm taking notes!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. There are so many thrillers out there, but sometimes it can be hard to find a good one. But I do recommend any and all of these. :D
DeleteI love thrillers! You've a great list there, Lark! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Melody! It was hard to cut this list to just 10 books.
DeleteI hardly read any thrillers so I'll be looking uip a few of these to see if there are any I might like.
ReplyDeleteThere are several that might work for you. I loved them all. You just need to find a plot or characters that look good.
DeleteI don't typically read thrillers but just started getting into them lately. So, a good list to get some recs! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are all very well done! Hope you find some that resonate with you. :D
DeleteI don't read many thrillers, but I do enjoy them occasionally. Now I have a list of good ones! Thanks!
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteI don't read many thrillers. Nice list.
ReplyDeleteThanks. :D
DeleteI love thrillers too. Good Girls Lie was awesome.
ReplyDeleteGood Girls Lie was awesome! Thanks so much for recommending it. Your review was what made me want to read it. :D
DeleteOh yay!! :):)
DeleteI love thrillers but I have only read one of the books that you listed. I do have another sitting on my shelf though.
ReplyDeleteWhich one have you read?
DeleteI used to love thriller, but not anymore these days.
ReplyDeleteThe Whisperer sounds interesting though!
I've read several books by Donato Carrisi and loved them all. But especially The Whisperer!
DeleteI've only read Good Girls Lie from this list, so now my TBR has expanded again. You know I love a great thriller!
ReplyDeleteI do. You regularly review and recommend books that end up on my own TBR list. :D
DeleteI love a good Thriller.
ReplyDeleteMe, too! :D
DeleteSome of these books look really scary just based on the covers. I do have a book by Loreth Ann White, In the Dark, not read yet. I did not realize she had written so many books.
ReplyDeleteI read a book partially set in Santa Barbara (where I live) by Meg Gardiner (China Lake). Had a forest fire in it too. A little over the top for me, but I still may read the second one, Mission Canyon, because that is the neighborhood I lived in for six years when we first moved to Santa Barbara.
In the Dark is a good one! I liked that one, too. And it's fun reading books set where you live.
DeleteOh this is so my kind of list! The Meg Gardiner book was great and all the others I haven't read, so I feel like I'm going to be add a whole heap to my TBR!
ReplyDeleteI loved all of these thrillers, so hearing you say you want to read some, too, makes me very happy. :D
DeleteI loved Good Girls Lie and Into the Black Nowhere!
ReplyDeleteWeren't they good? I loved them, too!
DeleteI'm not really a thriller fan -- at all! But it's fun to see your selections anyway. :)
ReplyDelete:D They're very fun books to read...but I can't read thrillers all the time. I have to mix in lots of romances, and other books, too.
DeleteI love books with good plot twists, too. Thanks for the recommendations.
ReplyDeleteI always like sharing favorite books with other readers. :D
DeleteI don't read many thrillers, but I do enjoy them when I pick them up. Which seems to be mostly in the fall. :)
ReplyDeleteFall is a good time for darker and more suspenseful reads!
