"I'm interested in upmarket thrillers that use an engaging thriller premise to explore personal/social issues – THE ECHO WIFE and WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING are two of my all-time favourite books."

"Psychological thrillers with new twists on my favorite classic tropes: unstable (or unhinged) narrators, missing memories or time, seemingly decent people with dark pasts, stalking, gaslighting in any form."

And as always, I'm still looking for commercial fiction across the board but predominantly in crime/thriller, accessible book club and romance spaces. Make me laugh, cry or scared to read at night!

Okay so I have more on my super specific wish list (beyond all the usual: really good commercial fiction that will make me want to scream about it from the rooftops)...

I've already covered a thriller (or romance) set in a Fire Lookout in the US:

"I'm on the lookout for mystery thrillers that explore a 'true crime' in their fictional world. Who does it impact, and how? What is justice? Think A GOOD GIRL'S GUIDE TO MURDER, NOTHING CAN HURT YOU, MY FLAWLESS LIFE, and JACKAL."

YA: coming of age romance like Last Night at the Telegraph Club or Ari & Dante w/gorgeous prose; coming of gender; atmospheric gothic (like The Handmaiden); historical/nf; mystery/thrillers like Firekeeper's Daughter or Patron Saints of Nothing; character-driven speculative. 4/6

I am also really looking for twisty, wildly intense Thrillers (or thriller-ish). Especially those that examine our social construct like GET OUT.

ESPECIALLY those told from diverse voices.

Fun might mean: turning tropes on their heads (COUNTERFEIT), acute social commentary (WHITE IVY and SUN DAMAGE), sending us to mind-boggling locations (MIDNIGHT and THE DIVE), or a steady drip of dark humor (HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY). Hit me with whatever you've got in this space

In terms of crime and thriller, perhaps ironically, I want books in this space that feel fun! I'm slightly fatigued by the gloomier end of the spectrum within this genre...

Agents and/or authors.

Please send me train thrillers like BULLET TRAIN, or something LEON-like with assassins or gangs.

Am always on the lookout for crime adjacent novels set in South Central LA, NYC, South Korea or Japan.

Or maybe some 90s Seattle-set grunge noir.

"For rom coms, my taste veers towards genre-blends, i.e., a rom com that's also a family saga or a romcom com that's also a thriller. DIAL A FOR AUNTIES by Jesse Q. Sutanto is a great example and my all-time favorite rom com."
