First time I've seen you and I love the way you present books. You give just enough info to tease the reader without giving away too much. I also like the fact that you didn't hold up books and wave them back and forth when you talked about them. I even agreed with most of your comments except - and I know I'm in the minority - but I didn't like The Secret Histories. Have you read Confessions by Kanae Minato or The One by John Marrs? Not sure if they are proper thrillers, but they are clever mysteries. Thanks!

Ahh, thank you! The Secret History can be pretty polarizing 🤣. Thanks for the recs, I’ve been wanting to check out a John Marrs book for a while!

Thank you, good recap of some of the books that caught my eye but I forgot about them. Oh sometimes you mentioned the title but not the authors name, didn't really matter as easy to search for. I enjoyed this very much, will look forward to watching more of your videos.

Omg you did right to DNF The Writing Retreat, it got way too unhinged and unrealistic for me. Too much weird sex stuff too

Love the older thrillers by Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler like Maltese Falcon and the Big Sleep. Best wishes.

Looking for some good mystery/thriller/murdery book recommendations for my Grandma. Needs to have a single timeline. Prefer a series. Ideally ones that are typically available at libraries. :)

I clicked on this fast enough to get whiplash. New fan! Riley Sager has so many great ideas floating around in his head; I can’t wait to see what’s next. I’m a huge Stephen King fan, but I know some of his books can be too much for some people. The two you’ve read are so so good, though, and of course many of us will tell you “The Stand” is a masterpiece. I, too, am a diehard Christiephile and of the standalone novels, ATTWN had one of the best surprise endings for me when I read it as a kid. I’ll always have a soft spot in my little grey cells for Poirot, however.

Recommendations! I love giving rec’s. The Cat Who series. I’m currently in my 4th or 5th binge of the entire 29-book series. “Five Total Strangers” “Four Found Dead” -Natalie D Richards “The Paris Apartment” “The Hunting Party” -Lucy Foley “The Girl Before” -JP Delaney
