I need to fill my kindle for holiday! 🤗

[MaryPoppinsPenguins]

I’m going to Greece for a week of pool, sun and reading... (in reality it’s chasing 5 & 7 year old with sun cream and asking DH to take a shift.. but I’d like to be prepared anyway!)

I really want some easy reading, enjoyable things. I love and have read probably all Linwood Barclay, Jodie Picoult and love them.

I’ve recently read Little Fires Everywhere, Good me Bad me, The Couple Next Door and Girl on The Train...

Any recommendations?

Just read Clean, The Girlfriend, The Girl Before, What Alice Forgot.

Have you read boy made of blocks and days of wonder - Keith Stuart ? Also Dorothy koomson esp goodnight beautiful but any of hers it Marian Keyes esp Rachel’s holiday and watermelon x

Ruth Ware! I’ve just read a couple of her very very readable thrillers, which it turns out is possible without grisly delight in detailed scenes of torture etc.

Sabine Durrant and Rachel Pinborough writes good non-grisly, thought provoking thrillers in a similar vein to The Girl On The Train.

Anything by Sarah Waters

You by Caroline Kepnes and The Ghostwriter by Alessandra Torre

the woman in cabin 10 was really good.

I mostly read psychological thrillers. These are my recent reads:
The date, Louise jenson
Mine, jl Butler
Beneath the skin, caroline England
My husbands lies, caroline England
Those other women, Nicola moriaty
All the liane moriaty books
Our house, Louise candlish

Big Little Lies and What Alice Forgot by Lianne Moriarty.

Rachel’s Holiday is probably one of my favourite reads ever.

The Book of You.
He Said She Said.

Both creepy psychological thrillers. Not too gory.

Nicci French does some good standalone novels - I’m not so much of a fan of their Frieda Klein series but that’s because the character really annoys me...

Just back from holiday and have been re-reading Stuart MacBride's books featuring Logan McRae - superb series.
Also enjoyed (and didn't expect to) The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell, who wrote Cloud Atlas, which will be my next book.

Just finished The Guilty Wife by Elle Croft and really enjoyed it, ideal holiday reading!

Ones I’ve enjoyed on holiday are:

Why Mummy Drinks
Eleanor Oliphant &
The Girl who saved the King of Sweden

As you are going to Greece, how about Madeline Miller’s new novel Circe?

I'd second The Book if You, currently engrossed in it!

Watching with interest op!!

I’ve just finished Unravellng Oliver by Liz Nugent as recommended in another thread and really enjoyed it

Place marking

Anything by Sara Paretsky

Mary Stewart's romantic suspense novels set in Greece! My Brother Michael, This Rough Magic and one other who's title I forget.

Also, if you've not read them, anything by Elizabeth Peters. Her Night Train to Memphis is one of my very favourite comfort reads ever. I love her Amelia Peabody Egyptian novels, but my heart belongs to Vicky Bliss.

Try What's Left Unsaid by Deborah Stone. Good read about family who lie to each other

Maybe something light for the pool? How about The Greek Escape by Karens Swann, half set Manhattan, half Greece? It's just been recently published

The Sudden Departure of the Frasers, The Swimming Pool or anything else by Louise Candlish.

I love things set on holiday,in the summer or in hot places on holiday for some weird reason. Got to narrow my choices down from:-

Tangerine -Christine Mangan
Something in the Water -Catherine Steadman
Lie With Me- Sabine Durant
Fatal Inheritance - Rachel Rhys
The Liddo- Libby Page
The Death of Mrs Westaway- Ruth Ware
Dry- Jane Harper
Force of Nature - Jane Harper
The Trouble With Goats and Sheep- Joanna Cannon
Sunburn- Laura Lippmann
Hot Milk- Deborah Levy
Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions-Mario Giordano

I just read Don't Let Go by Michel Bussi in a night,''twas quite gripping.
