Has anyone read Verity by Colleen Hoover? I've been meaning to read it for a while, and I was wondering if I should read this book for this month's genre discussion.

Over the past year, I've become enraptured with the psychological thrillers of Ruth Rendell. Portebello, A Sight for Sore Eyes, The Minotaur, and many others have all swept me away.

Thank you for the recommendations! I haven't read anything from Ruth Rendell. A Sight for Sore Eyes sounds interesting! I'll add this to my to-read list. Thanks again!

If you are looking for a great Mystery Genre Book, I would recommend, "The Captive Secret" by Mariah Stewart. I couldn't put it down. It is the perfect combination of romance and mystery with a hint of thriller ambiance that will leave you on your toes. . .
