I'm looking for a new good book. I like love, mystery, psychological thrillers all in one. Anything that sounds like a lifetime move, Christian fiction. Some examples are.....Redeeming Love, lovely bones, twilight, a child called it, hmmm all i can think of now....any suggestions???

    Eat Pray Love (obviously not a psychological thriller) or, lots of people loved The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, but it was too much for me. I had some horrible nightmares reading that book.

    Anything by Dennis Lehane.
  • I LOVE Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta series.

    Some of my favorites lately:

    The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield (kind of a gothic romance/mystery - soooo good!!)

    Through a Glass Darkly by Karleen Koen (historical/romance - very long but totally worth it!)

    The Deadly series by Charlaine Harris (what the HBO series True Blood is based on - much better than the series!)

    OMG that book made me so uncomfortable... I mean, it was good, but were all the terrible details REALLY necessary?!

    Have you already read The Host by Stephanie Meyer? I passed it by more than a few times but once I finally picked it up and began reading I couldn't put it down.

    Yeah, I cried through most of it, and I was on vacation reading it! I started the second and felt this sense of impending doom the whole time. I just couldn't bring myself to finish it, so I revisited the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett.

    Did Jodi Picoult write my sisters keeper?
  • If you liked Lovely Bones, read the other one by Alice Seabold called "Lucky" it's great. Anything by Janet Evonich is great too.

    Not a psycho thriller but The Help was an awesome book. Also, The Forgotten Garden. The 'Girl' trilogy was great too - Dragon Tattoo, Played With Fire and Kicked Hornets Nest.
