Thrillers/Suspense/Mystery book Help

Post by gali »

For this month, we will be reading Thrillers/Suspense/Mystery books:
Mystery is about the puzzle. Thriller is the push and pull between the protagonist and the villain. Suspense is about tension and what may happen. It can be present in any genre.

I recommend Agatha Christie's books. Some of her best books are: Murder on the Orient Express, And Then There Were None, Death on the Nile, to name a few.

Natasha Preston books are very intense. I just recently read The Lake recently and it was incredibly intense. I wasn't a fan of the ending, but I couldn't put the book down while I was reading it. It was an intriguing mystery. I am looking forward to reading the other books I have bought from Natasha Preston.

I'm just curious, does anyone know if there were ever a book written about Jack the Ripper? I have searched now for a couple of years but can find anything.

Patricia Cornwell wrote a couple of books about him: Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper - Case Closed , Ripper: The Secret Life of Walter Sickert. I didn't read them, though.

I am currently reading <I>Refugee on a Pendulum</i>, which was the book of the day a couple days ago. It is a political thriller!

I am a fan of crime mysteries. Karin Slaughter’s Will Trent series is a top favorite of mine.

I would like to read some thrillers or suspense novels soon. Anybody want to do a read along with me? I’m open to suggestions!
