I like suspense & thrillers.....like "Gone Girl" & "Before I Go to Sleep". A friend recommended "A Change in Altitude"....it was just Ok IMO. "A Simple Favor" by Darcey Bell is a recommendation I just got & might be next.........I'm almost finished with the "The Woman in the Window". Thank you!

Thanks, I like thrillers, too, so I would recommend the following:

Girl on a Train https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...l-on-the-train

Gone Baby Gone https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...Gone_Baby_Gone

Any book by Michael Connelly

Any book by Jeffrey Deaver

I also like every book I've read by Tana French, but she only writes about one book every couple of years.

There is also the following website you might try, and I already entered Gone Girl for you.

Here on CD, recently, a few of us just read "Lying in Wait" by Liz Nugent, it is a thriller, that I enjoyed, very much.

Thank you!

Another that was recommended is "Tony & Susan" by Austin Wright........which really looks good....(Nocturnal Animals).... AND "The Other Woman" by Sandie Jones, a Reese Whitherspoon book club recommendation." I've got several suggestions now.......

Thank you everyone else too.

I finally got my Greek heroes straight (who is Ajax? Hector? Achilles? Patroclus???) while reading a sweet, intriguing, riveting story about coming of age, friendship, loyalty, romance, and war. Can't recommend it enough.

thank you!!!

Has anyone read "Where the Crawdads Sing"........& if you did, what did you think? It's been a bestseller for a long time.

I loved it, but I’ve visited the Outer Banks a few times and enjoyed the vivid descriptions.

I considered it, but decided against it. So many 5 star reviews but some of the comments turned me off because the story sounds SO far-fetched.

I like thrillers, mystery, etc. I enjoyed "Lock Every Door" and "The Turn of the Key". Can't recall authors, sorry.
