As a young child I can remember feeling very daring indeed when I pinched my elder sister's thriller titled No Orchids for Miss Blandish. I read it with guilty pleasure by torchlight under the covers.

Any book by Lee child featuring Jack Reacher.
It takes you to a different time and place away from your own life

My favorite - A Quiet Belief in Angels by R.J. Ellory - simply blown away, I love thrillers that keep you to the edge of your seat.

I love the Tess Gerritsen books with Rizzoli and Isles. They are so exciting, with plot twists and turns :D

The Thursday Murder Club, Richard Osman's first book which is brilliant. Love crime thrillers for the suspense and trying to work out who did it, keeps my brain active!

I recently read Whispers and Lies by Joy Fielding and I loved it so much! Kept me gripped and actually made me gasp out loud, never done that at a book before!

I love thrillers as they tend to be page turners, you have to know what happens and although I try to guess who the bad guy is, I always get it wrong so I'm always surprised.

I love all crime novels read so many its hard to single it down to just one. but love anything by Patricia Cornwall. hooked till the very end.

And then there were none by Agatha Christie remains my favourite thriller for plotting.

I like thrillers as I feel I can try & figure out villain like the detective.

Although they are many years old I have only just got around to reading the First of the Val McDermid Wire in the Blood series which I really enjoyed. I love a thriller with a twist and this certainly had a twist - I'm having a rest now with The Thursday Murder Club which is much more gentle!

So much choice, and I’ve so many “favourites”.

I can still remember the shock I felt at the ending of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, but I wouldn’t re-read it in case it’s aged badly (or I have, and become more critical!). I love Val McDermid, Mark Billingham, Kate Atkinson. Old favourites are P D James, Ruth Rendell, and the early Patricia Cromwell, though imho her Scarpetta series went from the sublime to the really ridiculous, and I gave up on it eventually. A recent discovery is A A Dhand, whose books are set in Bradford, a city I know well. His plots are so fast-paced, and he incorporates interesting storylines about living in a multi cultural society.

Love anything my Anne cleeve. Her books are fantastic

I love Linda Green Novels - The Last thing she told me was an excellent book. C.L. Taylor is also one of my favourite Authors she has written The Fear, Sleep, The Treatment, Escape, and After I've Gone, And Then it Happened all of which I found really great reads. Then she was gone by Lisa Jewell left me thinking about it for a long time afterwards, it had a real twist and kept me totally absorbed. Thrillers are my favourite books but turn to Phaedra Patrick for more light hearted reading (not slushy) just try The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper it's an amazing story so interesting and will keep you wondering......

Hard to choose a favourite but My Lies, Your Lies by Susan Lewis which I read recently was gripping and kept me turning the pages long after bedtime!

Love reading thrillers especially ones with a twist. Love books by Steven Cavanagh they always have plenty of twists,
Thirteen is grippy and tense. Its about a trial with a ruthless prosecutor, a brilliant defence lawyer . Plenty of secrets and to top it all there is a murderer on the jury

I love the Child 44 series by Tom Rob Smith - I love thrillers interwoven with real historical settings, and Stalinist Russia is ideal for a tense atmosphere and not knowing which characters you can trust!

TH1RT3EN (Thirteen) by Steven Cavanagh - LOve a good thriller with an unexpected twist!

I’m reading the Harry Bosch books by Michael Connolly, they are very gripping. (Just discovered his tv series on Amazon Prime which is also good)

The Neighbour - Fiona Cummins, 10 out of 10 for twists & turns and quivering page turning at its best !!

I've just finished The Black Dahlia by James Elroy which left me shaken and stirred by the brutality and brilliance of the plot which was based on a true story. I'll be needing something a bit gentler to soothe my shaken nerves, so will be heading to the library soon, in search of a Linwood Barclay novel I haven't read.

I loved the Thursday Murder Club.
My passion for crime thrillers comes from being tied in knots with clues before finally getting the satisying reveal

I loved Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn. I love thrillers because you often can't guess what the twists are going to be, so it keeps you guessing throughout

I love Mo Hayder books, the unexpectedness of things that can happen, with a hint of feeling a little uncomfortable.

I'm reading Karin Slaughter's Blindsighted at the moment, it's excellent, a bit gory but I think if my stomach churns or I flinch at a description then the story telling is good and the characters are relatable.
Crime thriller books are my favourite genre of reading and there are so many good books it's hard to pick a favourite, my favourite authors are Shari Lapena, Clare Mackintosh, Harlan Coben and Linwood Barclay.
I like that I can empty my mind of everything except the book, when I'm reading.

The Simon serrallier series of books bu Susan hill are my favourite and have been read and reread. Hard choice though as it's my go to genre

I love Linda Le Plante's crime books, I became hooked after watching Prime Suspect on TV, I think that's why I am now hooked on Line of Duty.
