    If you liked My Lovely Wife you would love “The Kind Worth Killing” by Peter Swanson. Similar plots but 10x better!

    Glad to know I'm not the only one taking Kill Creek slow ~ I read mostly thrillers and horror but this one kind of creeps me out so I only read 1 or 2 chapters a day and then read something else. I don't really know if its that scary or not, but it definitely gives me the creeps ~

    Have you ever read The Strain by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan? If not, I highly recommend it for vampires returned to their horror roots. They’re more of a vampire-zombie hybrid, I’d say-true monsters. It can get pretty scary and gory, though, so read at your own risk!

    Yes "The One" was very soap opera-ish, that's why I liked it. I don't know if the author could do a sequel to this or maybe spin-off one of the characters because all of them were so interesting.

    My favourite thriller which name I cannot remember was about twins. One of them had gotten killed (don't remember how) and the mother is confused about which one of the twins IS left alive. It takes place on an Island in Britain. If anyone knows what book it IS please tell me because i really want to read it again.
    I am fascinated by twins in stories. Currently reading The Au pair.It"s about twins who Are no longer- sure If they Are related. Would recommend that book.
    Have you read the Turn of the Key and the Nesting? Would recommend them. Both have a maybe haunted House and a nanny trying to survive there.

    Mystery Thrillers are one of my top favourite genres following Horror. I thought southern book club was okay but I am looking forward to reading My Best Friends Exorcism soon. I'm disappointed I couldn't get my hands on Home Before Dark as it sounds incredible! I thought Mexican Gothic was fantastic- I'll definetely re read it again- it was kinda gothic horror.

  • @ginac3834
    @ginac3834 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm about 30% of the way through Mexican Gothic and I'm bored. Nothing has happened so far. Yes, the house has a creepy vibe and the family is weird, but plot wise, nada. I sincerely hope the pace picks up a bit. It's not so bad that I won't finish it, but it's very draggy. I'm glad you liked it. I'm hoping that's how I end up feeling by the end. Keep up the great videos!
