I should have known Kayla would do some deep analysis to choose her recs instead of just choosing some of her faves

she prolly made a whole spreadsheet and journal for it, and prolly invented a Starbucks drink to link the books together... lol :D

I also think it would be interesting to give a “compatibility score” because while not all of them were 5 stars for you, they also weren’t 5 stars for Kayla (specifically thinking of how you gave Night Swim 4.5 stars and that’s also what Kayla rated it)

I recommend the Six Stories series by Matt Wesolowski. It follows a podcast series (each book is a new series) where the main character investigates a cold case, I've only just finished the third book and the second was a little disappointing compared to books one and three but I'm desperate to carry on. The books all work as stand alones I think but do reference events from previous books

I wish I’d been watching your channel then because I’ve since read The Strange Case of the Alchemist’s Daughter and liked it much more than any of the other Booktubers’ books I read. The only Booktuber I think might jive with your tastes is Ellias, but purely based on that he reads a lot of thrillers too. Whoever you pick, I can’t wait for the next episode!
