What we’re about
There are no group member fees anymore!!! (YAY!). Each meetup will have a charge of $2. This is to prevent trolls that often appear through Zoom (even with the below precautions) and to help pay the hosting fees and zoom costs. There will also be codes provided through the blog for each meetup (see the meetup description) to join the meetup up for FREE. The blog link is below.
This group reads and discusses the Thriller genre. Mainly psychological thrillers. The group meets 2x a month. Feel free to join as many meetings/discussions as you like.

I have many books in queue right now that are some best sellers. I will read each book in advanced and then create a meetup about 5 weeks after I complete the book to give you time to read it before I open for a video discussion.
I will include a brief synopsis of the book in the meetup and a link to the specific blog about it. The blog will include the discussion questions that will be asked during the Meetup. Feel free to respond on the blog if you like. You can also add more questions in the comments.

The million-copy bestselling queen of twists returns with a gripping and deliciously dark thriller about marriage ... and revenge.
Author Grady Green is having the worst best day of his life.
He calls his wife, Abby, to share some exciting news as she is driving home. He hears Abby slam on the brakes when she sees something in the road ahead. Over Grady's protests, Abby gets out of the car. When he eventually finds her car by the cliff edge, the headlights are on, the driver's door is open, her phone is still there ... but his wife has disappeared.
A year later, Grady is still overcome with grief and desperate to know what happened to Abby. He can't sleep, and he can't write, so he travels to a tiny, remote Scottish island to try to get his life back on track. And then he sees the impossible: a woman who looks exactly like his missing wife.

A forgotten history. A secret network of women. A legacy of poison and revenge. Welcome to The Lost Apothecary.
In eighteenth-century London, women whisper of a hidden apothecary shop and its mysterious owner, Nella, who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. Nella's dark world is no place for her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old named Eliza Fanning, but their unexpected bond sparks a string of consequences that echoes through the centuries.
Two hundred years later, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell is running from her own demons when she discovers a clue to London's long-unsolved "apothecary murders." Caroline's upended present soon collides with an explosive history, binding her fate to Nella's and Eliza's in a stunning twist that transcends the barrier of time.
