Recs if you like All the Dangerous Things...

no matter what happens, there will be books with neon-text-on-a-dark-background covers and they will be thrillers.

Here's every book so far from BOTM's monthly shortlist since February 2015 for anyone who wants to read them all like I do!

This includes book that have either mystery or thrillers as a primary or secondary genre. If you have recommendations to add please comment and I'll happily add them 💕

Ah yes, this ol' issue that has plagued librarians and bookstore clerks for decades.

And sometimes you find the right book, but... can you even call that shade blue?

If you’re here, like me you might be tired of basically seeing the same plots and storylines over and over. This is a list of ones I’ve enjoyed that are all (mostly) different from each other*. Main thing in common might be the author.

*Can’t guarantee there aren’t similar types of twists/reveals lol.

So I LOVE the show Cold Case (ilysm Lilly Rush/Scotty Valens). Cold case mystery/thrillers live in that unsettling space where justice failed the first time, and the world moved on as if the truth didn’t matter. These stories, like the show, return to those forgotten crimes years, even decades later, when a detective, journalist, podcaster, or relentless outsider decides to dig deeper. #tacklingunfinishedbusiness #coldcases

red herring: 1. a dried smoked herring, which is turned red by the smoke. 2. a clue or piece of information that is, or is intended to be, misleading or distracting. these will make you go on a fishing expedition, if you will. this list will feature books highlighting the second definition.

sometimes the secrets buried under family relationships and everyday routines are unearthed and it goes poorly for everyone involved

The jury is still out, but these thrillers with podcast elements are officially in…this list.

Books we read for June's theme, plus some I've already read that I think fit the theme
