We did a bunch of year-end lists at Crime Reads (I particularly did the psychological thrillers) but I thought maybe I’d do a more inclusive year-end list, which reflects what I actually read, These are in no particular order, though I’d make a special plea for Snyder’s book, which I don’t feel like it got the publicity it deserves:
- Samantha Downing, My Lovely Wife
- Rob Hart, The Warehouse
- Steph Cha, Your House Will Pay
- Adrian McKinty, The Chain
- Lisa Halliday, Asymmetry
- Lisa Tadeo, Three Women
- Jeannie Vanasco, Things We Didn’t Talk About When I Was a Girl
- Laura McHugh, The Wolf Wants In
- Lisa Lutz, The Swallows
- Rachel Louise Snyder, No Visible Bruises: What We Don’t Know About Domestic Violence Can Kill Us
