I only buy books I want in my permanent library. Louise Erdrich..The Round House, Plague of Doves and La Rose.
I’m reading Birdman by Mo Hayder right now. It’s really good!
Yes! Mo Hader is fantastic. Sometimes though I have to set her book aside for a couple days cuz she can REALLY creep me out.
Can’t go wrong with Harlan Coben.
Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk.
Good Omens by Gaiman and Pratchett. When I need to be happy, this is the one.
I am Pilgrim. By Terry Hayes. Soooo good. Thriller. Debut novel from a play write.
Before the Fall by Noah Hawley.
Just got on a library hold for this today!
@Erin it is so good. so freaking good. except for 2 sexually-charged sentences that i felt were unnecessary, as a woman.
Stuart MacBride is my favourite…dark & grimm with humour woven in.
Just walk in, look around, and let the book choose you.
I’m a strong believer in books finding their readers in the needful moment…
That’s how I found Don’t You Cry by Mary Kubica & I love it!
Beartown!
Anything by Harlan Coben, Brian Freeman or Mo Hader.
Also tossing Val McDermid in here…she’s phenomenal.
