Now that I’ve read all of Louise Penny’s brilliant Gamache series, I’m at a bit of a loss for what to read between long/dense Pulitzer books. Something in the broad realm of mysteries and thrillers really appeals to me. And I’m certainly not alone, given that this category always heavily populates the bestseller lists.
A few of my own favorites over the years:
Louise Penny’s Inspector Gamache series
William Kent Krueger’s Cork O’Connor series (but also his standalone novels)
Tana French (though I’ve only read a couple of her Dublin Murder Squad books)
Stiegg Larson’s Millenium series (Girl With the Dragon Tattoo)
All of S. A. Cosby’s books
Okay, your turn! Let’s talk mysteries and thrillers. Can’t wait to see what ya’ll come up with.
Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier of course. and The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell.
The late, great, Caleb Carr’s The Alienist and The Angel of Darkness! Great reads!
