One for the Books: Give me a thriller

One for the Books: Give me a thriller

- Mary Louise Ruehr

Not all “thrillers” are keep-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat page-turners; some aren’t even that thrilling. This batch has mixed results.

My favorite this time around is “Killers of a Certain Age” by Deanna Raybourn. I like my mystery-thrillers with a bit of humor, and this one made me laugh out loud.
