I really love the Agatha Christie novels, but equally have become engrossed in the Shardlake series by CJ Sansom...set in Tudor times and brilliantly researched and written.
As many others have said on this thread, trying to unravel the clues etc gives my brain a good workout! ?

I like some and Ellie Griffiths books are always good. Good Girl on the train was good but some are just to violent for me.

Womens Murder Club Books by James Patteson

Carter Beats the Devil by Glen David Gould. Very strange and quirky, absolutely gripping – and a happy ending!

My favourites are the Mr mercedes trilogy by Stephen King, love the chase to stop the killer x

'Girl on a Train' by Paula Hawkins.

A well-woven web of intrigue and obsession which kept me turning the pages.I really enjoyed reading the novel.

I love the Elly Griffiths, Norfolk and Brighton series.
By contrast also Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano
books. The Sicilian setting and food is all part of unravelling the case.

My favourite thriller is Watchers by Dean Koontz - great storytelling and characters, fantastic pace!

This Sweet Sickness by Patricia Highsmith. It's a slow, subtle story with a creeping sense of uneasiness.

Bringing Adam Home by Les Standiford I love reading thrillers because l love trying to figure out the plot and l find them intriguing

I like the Jack Reacher books. I love reading thrillers because they keep you guessing!

My favourite opening sentence of a thriller is from Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow- "....it's snowing, and in the language which is no longer mine, the snow is qanik....." - such a sense of unbearable loss that pulls you in.
I like most thrillers - a snowy setting is good, learning something new (eg the Swedish legal system in Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) is great, and please don't ask me to suspend my disbelief too high!

I enjoy Patricia Cornwell's work and also Claire Francis' Wolf Winter. Always interesting to have a mixture of crime, politics and travelogue.

Give me a good thriller any day, especially ones by Lee Child -the Jack Reacher series. Once I start one of his books I just can’t put it down. I love being totally absorbed in a book. I have just read Blue Moon, which like all his books did not disappoint.

I have just finished The Curator by M.W. Craven it was brilliant and gripping plus being the third book in the series it's great to catch up with Poe & Tilly
I find thrillers and mystery books to be extremely entertaining and keep me guessing plus take me away from everyday life if I had to choose between murder mystery / thrillers & romantic homely books it would be the former every time

Oh I love reading thrillers.
I go through phases of reading whole series from an author. I loved the Kathy Reichs ones, as well as PD James and CJ Box as well as all the very famous ones.
At the moment I just waiting for the last one of Stuart McBrides ones set in Aberdeen. Love reading them as I am familiar with all the setting and places in the book which makes it very funny to read.

My favourite thriller was My Sister’s Grave.

When I read, I become totally engrossed and will even jump if I hear an unexpected noise.

Anything by Robert Goddard & Linwood Barclay they are among my Favorite Authors

Agatha Christie! My favourite is 'The Mysterious Affair at Styles' but guess that's not classed as a thriller, so another vote for 'The Murder of Roger Ackroyd'.

Elly Griffiths writes real page turners. I particularly like Now You See Them a detective story that unravels past crimes and The Lantern Men a crime story set in Norfolk. Both show a different side of Elly’s writing. A real talent.

Enjoy crime thrillers such as those penned by Mark Bellingham. I like the continuity of using the same detective I.e. Tom Thorne as their character develops over the stories as well as the stories each time, which are gripping and relentlessly paced so you are not left going, yeh I know who did it etc. On the contrary you get to know the workings of the mind of the killer along the way, so you feel a little ‘scared’ when they are carrying out their plans. At the moment I am reading FROM THE DEAD - by BM which is as usual a good read.

My favourite thriller is Gone Girl. I just love the way the book makes you not want to put it down. The film is not a patch on the book! I love thrillers as it makes the brain think and I like to guess myself the outcome. I am usually wrong!

Love Ian Rankin books. I really enjoy the ones set in areas of Scotland I grew up in as it adds that little bit more.

really enjoy thrillers. they keep you thinking. recently read some of sharon boltons books they are good and peter james as well. too many good authors to mention.

Any of the crime novels written by Ruth Rendell - especially those set in Suffolk, such as 'No Night is Too Long' (written as Barbara Vine) or 'A Dark Adapted Eye' also written as Barbara Vine. I love the way that Rendell/Vine creates an atmosphere through her choice of settings; the credible and emotionally engaging yet exciting characters; and most of all, providing an escape from everyday life (especially in lockdown) - a chance to lose yourself in a page-turning plot and forget about everything else that's happening in the world.
