Book suggestions for a gift

[Starfishiecloverhv]

Hi

I am looking to buy three or four recent books for my sister who is an avid reader and am looking for suggestions.

I'm looking for books that have come out in the last two years. She tends to like books with a mystery or crime thrillers, but also likes them with a romance element, but tends to not enjoy books that are solely romance. She is not into books that are set in the past.

Can anybody help?

Peter May's crime thrillers are brilliant. Not always a romance but very atmospheric.

Has she read any Janet Evanovich? Humorous mystery with romance...

Not as recent as two years ago but has she read the Hunger Games trilogy?

Id also recommend Jodi Picoult:- especially Plain Truth, The Pact, and Perfect Match, all of which have a crime theme.

Liane Moriaty
Robert Galbraith (JK Rowling)

Jack Reacher series by Lee Child? I recently discovered these & are brilliant. Plus there are loads in the series so if she likes the first one there are plenty more to get as gifts.

The Strangeling's Tale

link for The Strangeling's Tale
Great new author, sequel due out soon.

peter james - roy grace series

mark Billingham - tom Thorne series

both crime series with some of their story I enjoyed both, theres quite a few books in each with new ones this year.

I would second hunger games - brilliant series well worth a read.

has she read gone girl? seems v popular at the moment - ive got it from the library to read.
