Looking for a good book to read? National Public Radio has just released its list of the top 100 "Killer Thrillers," chosen by NPR listeners. It includes some classics such as Jaws, In Cold Blood and of course many books by Stephen King, but it also includes some titles that you may not have heard of. One book that made it onto the list is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. This book is marketed as a teen book but I have recommended it to several adults who were riveted by it and unable to put it down. The Hunger Games is the first of a trilogy, and the final book (Mockingjay) will be released on August 24th.
Other relative newcomers to the thriller list include Stieg Larssen with his The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series, Mira Grant with Feed (a zombie thriller) and 61 Hours, the latest thriller by Lee Child which had me on the edge of my seat for the entire time it took for me to read it.
Happy reading! Don't look behind you....
