Top 7 Best Thriller Books I Have Read So Far

[@erinlee920]

THANK YOU for not mentioning Verity, The Silent Patient, all those ones everyone talks about....I love that there's some new stuff and new authors here for me to check out!

[@BreakevenBooks]

I actually haven't read those ones! I tend to go for less known stuff 🙂

[@Kjs_interests]

Skip Verity. It was bad. Silent patient was ok. But like the OP they are always mentioned.

[@E_l_l_i_e]

​@@Kjs_interests I agree about skipping Verity. It's like reading something from wattpad.

[@Bluejerra]

The Silent Patient's twist is so garbage imho.

[@helloworld2054]

Both are overrated books imo, that's why I prefer reading underrated books

[@striverfor7628]

0:36 I Let You Go 2:18 The Book of Cold Cases 4:10 And Then She Was Gone 5:38 I'm Thinking of Ending Things 7:06 Face of Evil 8:23 Blood Will Out 9:37 Tell Me When You Feel Something

[@NikhilKumar-lx6yu]

just finished reading i let you go and like you said, my mind was blown and i wasn't ready for some twists. ending was also good.

[@BreakevenBooks]

Nice! Happy you liked it.

[@PhantomMagician1846]

I am guilty of buying books, having them sit on my shelf and then buying more books LOL

[@BreakevenBooks]

Its a book lover habit I think!

[@apd76696]

Yes always 😭🤝

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I love Lisa Jewell’s writing 🥰

[@BreakevenBooks]

I want to try more of her books!

[@amylee1459]

You look so excited talking about these books that it's making me super excited to get them and start reading!!!! Especially Im thinking of ending things!!!

[@BreakevenBooks]

Hope you enjoy them!

[@laurenschenck5355]

I agree with all these books are the best thrillers I read absolutely makes you jump out of ur set and etc 😊

[@BrilliantBlueReviews-u6e]

I've read three of these, and totally agree on I Let You Go and Then She Was Gone (that one broke me!). Clare Mackintosh and Lisa Jewell are two of my favorite authors.

[@BreakevenBooks]

Right! Both were pretty hard hitters. I'll have to do an updated list because I have read a bunch more since this video that have been great.

[@YummyGummy77]

Oh the book is called "Then She Was Gone" .....I kept typing in AND THEN ..... because that's how it's labeled above your link but I finally noticed and I just added it to my book app and can't wait to read it!!!

[@BreakevenBooks]

Ah Thanks for noting that. I will fix it 😊

[@chrisconnors7418]

I still haven’t read cold cases. I’ve had it for ages. I’m between books right now so I'll make that a priority to read.

[@BreakevenBooks]

Let me know what you think when you read it!

[@chrisconnors7418]

@@BreakevenBooks yep. It was already on my Kobo and it is all ready to go for bedtime reading tonight.

[@chrisconnors7418]

And it’s 4 am now. I think I know what the big twist will be, and I’m sure I know what happened with the phone. I’ll finish the book tomorrow and see if I’m right. Really gripping book.

[@CavediverRN]

Great list! Thanks for the recs!

[@BreakevenBooks]

No problem!

[@VampireBuddha77]

These are great recommendations! I'm a huge Lisa Jewell fan, and I've read I Let You Go and I'm Thinking of Ending Things too and really enjoyed them. Definitely putting the last 3 books on my tbr!

[@BreakevenBooks]

Yay! Let me know if you like them!

[@TheNerdyNarrative]

Okay, so FACE OF EVIL is going on my list...all I needed to hear was "serial killer" LOL I *loved* The Book of Cold Cases!

[@BreakevenBooks]

I think you would love it!

[@cecethompson914]

I’m thinking of ending things is one of my favorite thrillers! It truly scared me.

[@BreakevenBooks]

Such a mind bending book!

[@laurenschenck5355]

SO EXCITED!!! ❤

[@GabrielTheMagolorMain]

Great recs! I haven’t heard of the last couple, which is rare on booktube. The ones I recommend are The Broken Girls by Simone St James. I’ve read almost all her books, I loved Cold Cases, but Broken Girls hits a bit different, it’s such a satisfying mystery, I wish I could read it again for the first time. And The Nothing Man by Catherine Ryan Howard is the fastest I’ve ever physically read something, I had to keep going, the format is so great and unique and it hooks you right in. Hope you enjoy if you ever read those two!

[@BreakevenBooks]

Oh nice! i will definitely try out more by Simone because I loved her writing style. Thanks for the recs 😊

[@agb7573]

Simone St. James has quickly become a fave. I've been devouring her books lately.

[@harryl2232]

I just finished reading the chestnut man which was my fist noir crime thriller book and I’m ready for more. These all sound intriguing

[@BreakevenBooks]

I have heard of that one and people say its good!

I'm new to reading I'd say. I've read a lot of sherlock holmes novels and hardy boyz series during school tho. But recently read good girls guide to murder, chalk man and truly devious. Really loved them now. Now planning to read let you go. Thanks for the recs!!

[@BreakevenBooks]

I have Truly Devious on my shelf so maybe I will pick that one up! No problem!

[@ChunkySoupfortheSoul]

Going to the Library has been a mystery in and of itself. But no longer a thriller, sadly. Misprints, forgery competitions, and amazing curator battles get dull eventually. I have trouble finding paperback books that I can read - due to my poor reading skills. For example, I don't read Tom Clancy. Some of the old Steven King books are good.

[@BreakevenBooks]

Hopefully you can find some new exciting reads to bring that spark back!

[@CarolAttrux]

Clare Macintosh is a terrific writer. I was thrown for a loop too! Thanks for the book recs. New subscriber here. 📚🇨🇦😀

Hey, actually i just started reading books at the start of august. Before i got bored easily when reading. But for some reason that switched and now i like it. Before i knew it, i already have 10 books, with 4 more coming that i have ordered online. Been wondering what had happened that got me so hyped up. 😅 Im also a fan of thriller/horror/mystery books so i’ll take into consideration the books you reviewed in this video. 😊

[@BreakevenBooks]

That's great. I'm glad you have found that love for reading and I hope these recommendations help bring you some good reads!

[@greywaren621]

I'm here a year later, but better late than never. Great list, added quite a few to my tbr. ❤

[@BreakevenBooks]

Hope you enjoy them!

[@allimoo-249]

I will preface this by saying, I think your reviews are great, but I wish you didn’t mention the complete twist at the end of I let you go. It’s a spoiler alert to a degree. That was the sort of thing that supposed to surprise and now i expect it, so I hesitate to read it now

[@BreakevenBooks]

That's fair to say and I get that. I was just mentioning it because it was something I hadn't seen before and when someone says something like that, I am even more drawn in because I want to try and figure it out when I read it. But I understand where you are coming from and will look into not revealing too much in the future and finding another way to express my excitement.

[@puggarok]

Thank you sm for these suggestions!!!

Would definitely recommend I Found You by Lisa Jewell. I also love anthing ny Freida McFadden and Peter Swanson.

Thanks for the rec!

[@avantgardenovelist]

does it count as a spoiler to tell someone to read a book because it will end differently than you would have thought had you not been told so?

[@BreakevenBooks]

I don't think so because you are not giving away context as to what the new direction is, just stating its different than you expected.

[@avantgardenovelist]

@Breakeven Books yeah, I guess so. worth exploring though, imo.

Thank you for this vlog review! You deserve more viewership for this particular review. I'll even share it on my Twitter account and will let everyone know you're a young and cute book reader. LOL! Considering that I'm an unpublished author, who writes about stalkers, serial killers, and deranged characters in general it's refreshing to watch a KZbin vlogger, who doesn't act like an airhead explaining about Horror, Thriller, and Crime Fiction. Trust me, I tried watching 3 female vloggers about similar topics and it was painful. ROTFL! BTW: Do you know the other book publishers' names for the other books you reviewed in this vlog?

@@BreakevenBooksyay yes! I often recommend it. Top suspense is Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter if you haven’t read. Then behind closed doors I also recommend. Have more but those 3 are high. I liked I see you more than I let you go. It could be the realistic scariness of it. Like in most books it’s what’s happening to these people but with I see you. It could be a horrific reality. Once you read it you’ll know what I mean. Creeps me out. And the parts with the sinister point of view. *Chefs kiss*
