The Girl On The Train is one of our favourite books of the last five years.
It’s tense, gripping and dark. But it’s not the only thriller that ticks all of those boxes.
Here are a few more to check out…
The Good Girl (Mary Kubica)
Mia Dennett ends up going home with an enigmatic stranger after being stood up by her on-off boyfriend. Little does she know is he’s about to turn her world upside-down and
not in a good way.
Try Not To Breathe (Holly Seddon)
An intense psychological thriller with complex characters, this debut novel from Seddon is one you won’t forget and one that it won’t take you long to get through.
Little Girl Gone (Alexandra Burt)
A baby girl goes missing from her crib but her mother Estelle doesn’t report her missing and can’t remember what happened. When she turns up in a wrecked car days later, the police start asking questions.
Before I Go To Sleep (S.J. Watson)
Another book that will be making its way to the big screen soon,
Before I Go To Sleep is a twisting story with a twisted ending and we loved every moment of it!
Gone Girl (Gillian Flynn)
Arguably the novel that kicked off the resurgence of this genre involving an unpredictable and unreliable narrator. Flynn’s other works,
Sharp Objects and
Dark Places are also good reads.
