Could someone recommend me a book please

[cheeseisthebest]

I like the following authors
Lisa Jewell
Maggie O Farrell
Curtis Sittenfield
Louise Candlish
Joanne Cannon
Val McDermid
CL Taylor

I'd like something that isn't soppy or romantic, I like thrillers but not too gory.
Karen Slaughter is too much for me!

I'm reading Quintin Jardine Bob Skinner series and enjoying them. I find Val Mcdermid pretty gory tbh. Others I've enjoyed would be Elly Griffiths Ruth Galloway series, Rebus series by Ian Rankin, Michael Robotham Joe Mcloughlin series.

Alice feeney might fit the bill!

I am reading Inheritance by Jenny Eclair.. I like the same as you usually, this is nothing like those but VG so far.
Anything by JE is good.

Jodi Picoult, Diane Chamberlain, Dorothy Koomson. Kelly Rimer is supposed to be good but not read any of hers yet.

Sorry, Kelly Rimmer is the correct spelling.
Love Liane Moriarty too.

I meant Karin

Yes I agree some Val McDermid is too gory, I gave up on one cos of that! I did read two that I really liked

Oh yes I like lianne moriarty too. Enjoyed her last one but thought nine perfect strangers was bit rubbish.

Thank you everyone for recommendations!

I forgot Kate Atkinson, probably my favourite author amd Sarah Waters, she hasn't written anything for years.

And erin Kelly so many great authors!
Not read any Diane Chamberlain, off to have a look!

John Marrs
Just finished When you disappeared. Have read The Good Samaritan earlier.
The man is a psycho - I mean the writer - and I thoroughly recommend.

Any of the Lucy Clarke books. All based around the sea. No Escape and Last Seen are the first two I read. Her others are good too.

Susan Hill's mystery series
Jane Harper thrillers
Robert Galbraith thrillers ,although they can be gory
Sally Magnusson
Lissa Evans

BA Paris, Behind Closed Doors - brilliant.
I've just read The Ice Cream Girls, Dorothy Koomsman. Really enjoyed it.
(Funny you say that about 9 Perfect Strangers. My sisters and I love the same books. They hated it. I loved it !!)
Mary Higgins Clarke writes great thrillers. Loves Music Loves To Dance one of my favourites.

Ann Cleeves
Peter James
Lesley Pearse
Kathy Reichs (can be gory)

I've read the ice cream girls liked that!

I wasn't wild about Nine Perfect Strangers either.
I 'm reading All My Lies Are True, the sequel to The Ice Cream Girls, @Lemonweightloss and enjoying it more than The Ice Cream Girls.

Clare Mackintosh
Robert Galbraith (pen name for JK Rowling)

@Papergirl1968, yes, I'm going to order the sequel. I believe it's very good.

Just started behind closed doors.

And finished it!

Couple I have just read - Magpie by Elizabeth Day and I let you go by Claire Mackintosh.

I want to read Tall Bones recommend by unmumsy mum next.
These 2 aren’t quite crime thrillers but both have a twist and an interesting plot. Interested to know if anyone else has read these and liked / didn’t like them. Magpie is quite new, I believe she wrote it in lockdown 1.
