There was an 8-week waitlist for this audiobook from my library and now I know why! 𝘕𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 is a tensely gripping thriller that delves into the terrifying world of a woman’s struggle against an unknown intruder. I assumed all the action would take place within her home but I was wrong. The author explores the… Keep Reading

”I study people who commit crimes when they sleep” I was thoroughly mesmerized by this clever thriller from the very first lines.

Dr. Benedict Prince, a sleep disorder specialist and forensic psychologist,… Keep Reading
Book Review: The Fury by Alex Michaelides
It’s difficult to write a review of this book because there are so many spoilers! Half way through reading, I thought I had guessed the direction this book was going. I was SO wrong. Set aside a day or at least a few hours for this book because it is 100% binge-able. Every time I… Keep Reading

What would a parent do to protect their child? That’s the underlying question in this fabulous new thriller from Gillian McAllister. The twists, the red herrings, the surprises!

None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell
What starts off with a seemingly harmless and random meeting in a restaurant (“𝘏𝘪! 𝘐’𝘮 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘣𝘪𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘸𝘪𝘯!”) rapidly takes an unusual turn in this completely engrossing thriller by Lisa Jewell.

Part sci-fi, part thriller, part adventure, this intense story will stay with me for a long time. Daniel Kraus has collaborated with Guillermo del Toro and… Keep Reading
Strange Sally Diamond by Liz Nugent
I knew from the opening sentence that I wouldn’t be able to put this book down: “‘Put me out with the bins,’ he said, regularly.” Sally Diamond is in her 40s and still lives with her adoptive parents in a small Irish village. She can’t quite be described as being on the spectrum, as her… Keep Reading
The Last Word by Taylor Adams
When I read the synopsis of this book I was hooked! A reader leaves a one-star review for a thriller author and he stalks her? Sold! After making sure that the dog doesn’t die (spoiler: he doesn’t!) I jumped right in to the audiobook. There aren’t many characters in this story but the twists… Keep Reading
Cutting Teeth by Chandler Baker
Wicked, sarcastic and so much fun! Chandler Baker always has a wry way of looking at parenthood, marriage and the inner life of working mothers. Her newest book CUTTING TEETH is no different. Probably her darkest book yet, this story examines the lengths parents will go to protect their children. There is… Keep Reading
The Only One Left by Riley Sager
WHAT. If you enjoy a thriller with a twisted ending (or two!), you’ll love THE ONLY ONE LEFT. Did I guess part of the big reveal very early on? Yes. Did it spoil my enjoyment of the book? Absolutely not! This fast-paced story is told through multiple perspectives. Kit is a caregiver… Keep Reading
