If you like a whodunnit or something to keep you guessing, these are some of the thriller/suspense books I’ve really enjoyed.
Holly Jackson’s first adult book is so good. The premise is so unique and engaging.
Not Quite Dead Yet: A Novel (B&N Exclusive Edition)|BN Exclusive
Hunter wakes up after a car accident to find out his girlfriend Chloe is missing. While the kids at school think he had something to do with her disappearance, he sets out to find out what really happened.
She's Gone
My absolute favorite B.A. Paris book. It really sticks with you since this is something that could really happen. Very well written.
Behind Closed Doors: A Novel
One of the few Ruth Ware books I actually liked. I thought the cruise setting was a nice change of pace. I enjoyed the mystery in this one much more than some of her other books.
The Woman in Cabin 10
Daughter of the town detective and a criminal mother? Having to return home to the town you left years ago? A drought that’s uncovering hidden secrets? Yes to all three. My favorite Meghan Miranda book so far.
Daughter of Mine: A Novel
Gorgeous edition with these sprayed edges. This book was my introduction to Karin Slaughter and it was a good one. The story was crazy…in a good, suspenseful way.
Pretty Girls Deluxe Collector's Edition: A Novel|Paperback
This is a prequel of sort. For maximum impact though, read after Pretty Girls. It really hits harder when you’re reading the events in reverse.
Blonde Hair, Blue Eyes|Paperback
Freida McFadden is very hit or miss for me, but I enjoyed this book. I thought Blake was well written and the story was good.
The Tenant
Adam and Amelia win a weekend trip which they need since their marriage is rocky. Adam suffers from face blindness so he doesn’t recognize anyone on sight. Things go wrong pretty much from go. I thought the twist was really good and I look forward to...

11/22/63: A Novel|Paperback
Great start to a series. A really fun take on solving crime by making the story center around retirees who get together to discuss unsolved cases.
The Thursday Murder Club (Thursday Murder Club Series #1)|Paperback
Ernest is a like-able main character who tells you from the beginning that he’s going to tell you everything but you have to read between the lines to pick up what he’s saying on some of it. All of his family members are also hilarious. The situation...
