Favorite Psychological Thrillers
I'm sure you have heard the hype about Gone Girl by now. My personal opinion is that the book was way, WAY better than the movie. Also, I've read quite a lot of other psychological thrillers that I've loved even more than Gone Girl. It seems that whenever people describe this genre that Gone Girl is usually… Continue reading Favorite Psychological Thrillers
Behind Her Eyes by Sarah Pinborough

The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
I enjoyed the first psychological thriller from Ruth Ware, In a Dark, Dark Wood, but this novel was oh so much better - with a luxury cruise liner as the setting and an abundance of possibilities among the guests as to who could be the killer(s). Laura (Lo) Blacklock, a travel journalist from London, has just… Continue reading The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware

The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
After seeing all the buzz for this book and all the comparisons to Gone Girl, I decided I would give it a try. Then, I was on a hold list forever and that caused me to want to read it even more. Funny how that happens! Well, I finally read it and I'm not entirely… Continue reading The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
One Step Too Far by Tina Seskis
I loved this psychological thriller. It was packed full of suspense and kept me guessing until the end. The reader can't help but feel for the main character, despite her many flaws and turns in the wrong direction. Often compared to Gone Girl, the book does have some similarity, but I felt it was much… Continue reading One Step Too Far by Tina Seskis
