Still loving Last One at the Party but

a lot of the animal stuff is sickening me, like the old lady eating her cat and next doors cat. I keep having to remind myself it’s not real because it’s making me heave 
Do you have Spotify premium already? You get 15 hours audiobooks on that. Otherwise, there’s Libby and BorrowBox with a lot of local library services, or Audible tend to do deals
Ok thank you. I might get through more if I listen to some audiobooks.Still loving Last One at the Party but---a lot of the animal stuff is sickening me, like the old lady eating her cat and next doors cat. I keep having to remind myself it’s not real because it’s making me heave

Thank you for that. They all sound interesting, but I have taken two from the list (inless I end up with eight suggestions in whicj one will habe to go)
My books so far are
1. The Quiet Tenant by Clemence Michallon (Eenymeenyminymo)
2. Take it Back by Kia Abdullan (vanilla cupcakes)
3. Happy New Year by Marlin Stehn (nbt)
4. No Exit by Taylor Adams (katykatykaty)
5. Only The Stains Remain by Ross Jeffrey (katykatykaty)
So seven more suggestions please....
this is the one genre i never ever read oh dear
looking at my 2023 reads though i would recommend the marriage portrait by maggie o’farrell as one that might be up your street.
i remember you liking betty and tiffany mcdaniel’s new book (on the savage side) is based on true crime events so you may like that too!
My suggestion would be David Jackson's Don't Make a Sound.
It’s YA but they’re so fun and easy to read! I loved the Good Girls Guide to Murder series by Holly Jackson, also Five Survive by the same author
Have you read "And then there were none" by Agatha Christie?
Audible sent me an email with 50% off for the first 4 months so if you’ve never been a member before that’s a good deal! I use BookBeat and pay £5.99 a month for 20 hours, I will say the selection isn’t as good but I can’t justify £8 a month for one book on Audible. I also use Spotify
I’m going to recommend Penance if you’ve not read that yet, not the usual crime/thriller but has elements of both!
I have Spotify premium and it has a good selection of books. I don’t like the fact it only gives you 15hrs listening though. I also use Libby
I am happy to branch out! The Marriage Portrait is in.this is the one genre i never ever read oh dear

2 (3) more books to go.....
@ordinaryjelly I didn't think I read thriller type books but according to Storygraph, I read 17 last year (I definitely question how these were catergorised..)
But the three I enjoyed the most were:
Into the darkest corner, Elizabeth Haynes (this should come with a trigger warning though - DV, SA)
Bright Young Women, Jessica Knoll
None of this is true, Lisa Jewell (audiobook format is good, not sure how it translates in physical).

My goodreads target is 25 this year. I normally average about 50 a year, but this year didn’t met my target by 8 as I’ve been in such a slump since the summer. Im due a baby in April so have dropped my target as maternity leave can go on or two ways, ill read loads because I’m off work, or I’ll read nothing because BABY 
I have read None of This Is True and loved it.
Bright Young Women made my cut....
