All This Could Be Yours by @hankphillippiryan.bsky.social was thrilling and affirming, playing with storytelling itself by blurring the line between truth and performance. The end left me shaken and empowered. Turns out perspective might be the most powerful thing you own. Brava HPR! #thrillers

This Is Happiness by Niall Williams is a reminder that life’s true current runs deeper than wires and switches. As electricity flickers into a rain-drenched Irish village, he captures the quiet miracle of connections that existed long before modern advancements. Beautiful book 🙏🏼⭐️🙏🏼#booksky #novels

@richardosman1.bsky.social The Thursday Murder Club is a delight—witty and sharp. Set in a retirement village that swaps bingo for cold cases, it brims with humor. The joy lies in watching unlikely sleuths do extraordinary things. #booksky #thrillers

Dark and delightful! Invisible Woman by Katia Lief takes a firm hold from the first page and never lets go. Sleek plotting, taut suspense, and a titular woman refusing to vanish from view. A must read! #booksky #thrillers

Dark Ride by @louberney.bsky.social is a compelling suspense story anchored by the disarming humanity of its unlikely hero. The prose are spare, vivid, and often moving. A reminder that heroism can sometimes come in the form of a kind person refusing to look away. #thrillers #booksky

I am undone. Just finished The Nightingale by @kristin-hannah.bsky.social. A beautiful, heart-wrenching novel set in WWII that feels urgent and timeless. The forces of evil are terrifying, but more powerful are those who dare to stand against them. You made me cry but also gave me hope. #booksky

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid seduces with its Old Hollywood glamour—affairs, fame, and scandal delivered in a voice as polished as a cushion-cut diamond. Beneath the shine lies a poignant story about identity, sacrifice, and the cost of hiding the truth. #booksky #novels

The Treasure Hunters Club by Tom Ryan is a fun mystery with a killer twist. Great use of multiple timelines and perspectives. Love the seaside setting and rich characters. Thoroughly enjoyed. #booksky #thrillers #mysteries

Oh. My. God. The Life We Bury by @alleneskens.bsky.social is the best book I’ve read in years. A Masterclass in suspense that only got more gripping as it progressed. You left me breathless and awed. It was perfection. Bravo! #booksky #thrillers

You Are Fatally Invited by Ande Pliego is a wickedly fun mystery with a killer concept—literally. Kept me guessing and has me seriously rethinking any future writer’s retreats. Well done! #booksky #thrillers

The God of the Woods by @lizmoorebooks.bsky.social is a gripping mystery that powerfully explores grief, family secrets, and resilience. The dual structure of two timelines is not only clever but also essential to the novel’s momentum. Completely in love with this book! #booksky #thrillers

Listen for the Lie by @amytintera.bsky.social was thoroughly enjoyable and a great twist on the unreliable narrator. A fun mystery with a layered, relatable main character - Lucy - who is full of wit and vulnerability. Highly recommend! #booksky #thrillers #novels

We Were Never Here by @andibartz.bsky.social is a taut, beautifully written thriller that spins a masterful web of twists, all while unraveling the quiet terror of untangling where our trauma ends and someone else’s begins. Brava!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #booksky #thrillers #novels

Eighty-five years after its publication, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter still feels urgent and haunting. Carson McCullers wrote this novel at 23 and doesn’t hold back on how hard life can be—but also refuses to give up on the idea that, somehow, we still reach for each other. #booksky #carsonmccullers

Notes on an Execution is stunning with luminous prose even as it traces the darkest corners of human experience. Danya Kukafka’s brilliance lies in where she trains her focus: not on the violence, but on the women who endured, escaped, or were lost to it. In awe! #booksky #novels #thrillers

Just finished Counterfeit by @kirstinchen.bsky.social. Such a delightful read and inventive approach to storytelling. Loved how the book explored the ways in which even the most unexpected friendships can become lifelines when life veers off course. Brava!! #booksky #novels

Found this book at AWP last week - The Night Flowers by Sara Herchenroether. Haunting and beautifully written. Most interesting use of ghosts in recent memory. Brava!! #booksky #tinhouse #thrillers

Shoutout to everyone writing a book and silently wondering if it's any good. You're doing better than you think! #Booksky #Writer #Author

Current read: HAVOC by Christopher Bollen. So good! Early on Maggie talks about a photo where she and Peter have a gray sheen on their face and hair, looking like their parents. “What a wicked joke pictures play. A punchline taking so long to arrive.” Smart, thoughtful prose. #booksky

The Fixer by @josephfinderbooks.bsky.social masterfully weaves action and suspense with a deep exploration of the complex moral bond between father and son against the gritty backdrop of Boston’s political underbelly. A thrilling delight from start to finish. Mr. Finder, you have a new fan! #booksky

This was a great, moody read. And fascinating perspective (police transcriber)—wonderful way into the world. Would make a great TV series. Well done Hannah Morrissey - looking forward to reading more of your work. #booksky

OMG—just devoured The Murder List by @hankphillippiryan.bsky.social and I’m still reeling from that jaw-dropping twist! Masterful storytelling that left me stunned and inspired! You are amazing!!! #booksky

Introduced to @kierstenmodglin.bsky.social at ITW BizzFest and had to know more about this author of 50 Indy novels. Started with The Arrangement and just finished The Amendment. So many wonderful and unexpected twists! I’m going to be very busy reading the next 48 books! Well done KMOD! #booksky

Genius! @sgj.bsky.social masterfully layers suspense with a deep exploration of trauma. The use of horror tropes was inspired. In awe. Highly recommend. Don’t know how this wound up on my TBR list, but so glad that it did! #booksky

Reading Animal by Lisa Taddeo. This line killed me about her seduction of older men. “The older the man, the more my specialty. I knew that when I met God one day it would go well.” #Booksky

Obsessed with Mick Herron. This line from Slough House describing Lamb's clothing: His shoes were scuffed lumps, the hems of his trousers frayed, and his overcoat might have been stitched from the tattered sail of a pirate ship. He always manages to place the reader squarely into the scene. #booksky

Just read The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver. Exquisite, thought provoking prose. This line has stayed with me: I knew Rome was burning, but I had just enough water to scrub the floor, so I did what I could. #novels
