A Good Thriller discussion
Introduction

Please Introduce Yourself, Let's All Get To Know Each Other

I'm Sonja from South Africa, a happily lone mom with my 13 year old son. Glad I found this group as I'm totally addicted to thrillers and mysteries, especially the ones you don't see coming.

I'm Andie and I'm a bookaholic. My favorite genre is mystery/thriller, but I had no idea this group existed. My favorite authors are Robert Crais, Lee Child, Sara Paretsky, Harlan Coben, John Sandford, Tess Gerritsen, Kate Atkinson, David Baldacci, Dennis Lehane, Lisa Scottoline, Janet Evanovich, but as I'm current on all these, I have to keep adding more! Please make a pitch for your favorites.
I also love films, music and live theatre. Being retired helps, but there are still too many books, too little time. And I'm not that good at sitting still unless I'm in the theatre or holding a book.
I'm from a suburb of Chicago and really love the Midwest, but like to travel as often as I can.

Welcome Andie, you've come to the right place to find fellow thriller lovers! You've listed some good ones! How about Karin Slaughter who when she's good is very good. Or Chelsea Cain for some thrilling creeps? I'm originally from the Midwest as well, but happy to have relocated to the PNW :)

I’m 25 and live in Southern California. I have definitely been slacking off on reading books and am new to goodreads. I love thrillers so I can’t wait to see some recommendations. Starting off 2020 right!! :)

I moved to West Michigan in 2018 when my husband and I gave up the "9-to-5" and purchased a campground. I had previously been an English and Social Studies teacher and most recently a high school counselor. I've been able to return to my favorite hobbies - one of which is reading.
I have two teen-aged children, and find myself reading what they're reading, but my favorite genre is mystery/thrillers. I will read anything except westerns or romances! ;)


Thanks Sean for the invitation. My name is Lina and I live in New York. I love reading and I have a library in my home which is so overflowing to the point I now have shelves and stacks and even boxes of books in almost every room in my house, even the bathrooms lol. I have started a collection of popup books, I find them simply magical since I was a child.
I also have over 800 ebooks, which I am always willing to share. All the books on my have read, and want to read list I already personally own so check them out and if anyone wants an ebook from my lists I will be happy to email them to you.
I, also like Sean, love playing tennis. Im not really good but I dont care because its fun as hell and totally addicting. I play every chance I get.
I also like making jewelry. I dont sell it, I mostly make it as gifts for friends or for myself.
I love animals and I have a Bernese Mountain Dog, three cats and a snake.
Want to know my favorite book? Impossible to answer that! There are very few books that I didnt like, but honestly the few I couldnt finish was most likely romance. My favorite genres are mystery, thriller, epic sci fi fantasy, crime, space, and certain types of erotica.
Im happy to have been invited and I look forward to meeting other members and Im always on the prowl for new books recommended by others.
Hi

Yes I play 2-3 times a week, tennis.

My name is Milene, I am Portuguese and I’ve lived in Maidstone (England) for nearly 8 years. I love reading. The constant need to keep learning for work takes a lot of my reading time but I try to find time for my pleasure reading too. I am good at research and have imagination but I’m not a very good writer so, unfortunately, that is a path that I won’t undertake. I have two beautiful cats and my idea of a relaxing Sunday is sitting in the sofa with the cats and a cup of tea reading a book.
Hey, I'm Jess! I'm from Wisconsin. The last couple years I've really been getting into murder/thrillers/serial killer/etc. I'm a dental hygienist and I talk to patients about books and that just adds to my growing "to be read list"
Currently I'm reading The Woman In The Window
My s-i-l and I started and Instagram account a few months ago (@booksandcurds) to give us something that we can just for ourselves and it's definitely rekindled our love for reading!

Hi Sean,
Happy to be here. I live in a stone cottage in the middle of Brittany, France. Beautiful here, but the winters are looooong, wet, and cold.
Can't wait for spring.
Kerry.

Hi Klass,
I write thrillers (no, this isn't a 'buy my book' pitch). One of my planned Ryan Kaine stories will be set in The Netherlands (Haarlem). I'd be interested in picking your brains for local background information and colour, if you can spare the time. No rush, though.
Happy to give you a mention in the acknowledgements if I ever finish the project.
Regards,
Kerry.

Hi Kerry, no problem, I actually went to school in Haarlem (way back when) so I know it a little bit, quite a nice old town. I will send you a friend request, then you can send me direct messages with any questions you might have about Haarlem or The Netherlands.
Greetings,
Klaas
