Currently, I'm reading The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides. This is also a psychological thriller, and I'm really enjoying it so far. I'll come back here when I'm done and let you know if I still recommend it!

- Latest Review: Basic Training for the Self-Publishing Battlefields by Lewis Kempfer
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Operation Barracuda - An engaging read that has a little bit of everything in regards to C/T/H/M genres
Meddling Kids by Edgar Cantero - To me, this could fall into the Thriller category due to the storylines though it does contain some graphic descriptive imagery so reader beware
The Nancy Drew Graphic Novels by Papercutz - a refreshing take on the young detective series set in a modern day setting. Readers are pretty much in the dark up to the reveals; nice quick reads.
Haven't been reading much Crime/Thriller pieces lately but should get back to it.

What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

Sure! It's about this woman who shoots her husband to death and becomes silent. No one knows why it happened because she just stops talking after the event occurred. Now, there's a doctor who's determined to figure out the truth.JonicaBradley wrote: ↑22 Nov 2019, 09:09I would love to.

I think that's all I can say without giving too much away.
