I loved Verity and I'm team letter. Based on her name "Verity" which means "truth". I don't think the author would have chosen this unique name if it didn't mean something important.

The author actually said that she was team manuscript lol

I'm team letter, I've always had this suspicion that Jeremy was too good to be true. I feel like he was the one that wrote the manuscript...

Thank you for these reccomendations, Ashley. I have read and enjoyed quite a few already, but added several not yet read to my TBR (which is already overflowing due to booktube).

@jimgorman3600 Год назад

Just found your channel today and immediately subscribed. I read lots of thrillers and murder mysteries - been reading for over 20 years. I found your reviews to be very informative and interesting, and as a result have included a bunch of books you covered in various reviews on my Kindle Unlimited list. Haven't been exposed to the psychological thriller genre before today and am excited to read a number of your recommendations. Might report back after sampling 5 or 6 of them and by the way congratulations on your many followers.

The secret history by Donna Tart. One of the very best psychological thrillers ever written. Breathtaking. Also Dostoyevksy's crime and punishment (probably the best one ever written) Thank you for your share. Noel 📚 🎇

Funny story..... I have a friend that tends to like the same books as I do ( so i thought) she told me not to bother with Verity but then i started hearing a few others talking about it so I grabbed it and ended up loving it. A Flicker in the Dark was phenomenal, Maidens was so good i picked up The Silent Patient and couldn't stand it. I have the Push on hold at my library.

@bethanyu4911 2 года назад

@bluegumbo6014 Год назад

Have read most of these so I guess I like thrillers too. But not so much when they drift into horror. How do you keep your character map? I haven’t quite settled on a good method/format.

@littlemiss131 Год назад

Mind blowing 🤯

@sarah2053 Год назад

Team manuscript, but i think that may be because Lowen resonated with me... being that 30s woman who doesnt quite feel like a woman yet, dealing with loss and anxiety and lack of confidence in herself and her work. I was pulling for her the whole book and am not ready to fathom that she may have been in the wrong.

@andrev5992 2 года назад

I just read most of this in the past few months - only a few I haven’t. So if you like those, I recommend: • The Wife Between Us • When You Find Me • The Burning Girls

@ashleyslittlelibrary 2 года назад

Oooh yes The Burning Girls is one of my faves! Haven’t read the others yet but I’ll look into them!

@AFrolicInTheTomesxx 2 года назад

I unfortunately didn’t feel the psychological aspect of the push at all. To me it was glaringly obvious how it would end the entire time and there really never was that psychological struggle with me while reading it.

@burnerandhoney Год назад

I loveeee The Silent Patient! I’m new to the RU-vid reading world and I’ve found that The Silent Patient isn’t really liked as much as I thought it would be 😂 I love your videos by the way 🫶🏾

Hi Ashley you should try Donato Carrisi's books. He is the king of psychological thriller and every time you think you understood something he changes everything. Even if now I know his style of writing, I still cannot figure out the end of his books, every single time I'm WTF 🤯! I hope you will try and enjoy !

@sumankumari5004 2 года назад

Can you pls suggest some of your top Donato Carrisi books

@maddalena2529 2 года назад

@@sumankumari5004 His first The whisperer is still one of my favorite and it's also the first of a series of four, so if you love you can continue or stop (because it has its own end). I also love one of his last but I don't find it in english, the title translate from italien could be The house of voices, it's brillant! I really hope you'll love and maybe I will know your thoughts in a month's wrap up. 😉

I might not be in the majority despite’s peoples reviews but I loved the maidens. Michaelides writing is amazing. I’m encapsulated the whole time. Same with the silent patient.

Thank you for the recommendations. Can you tell me what you mean when you say that a book is "over the top"? That mean that it's not very plausible?

@ashleyslittlelibrary 2 года назад

Yes usually pretty unrealistic, dramatic, and maybe comes off a little cheesy?

@sylviashanabrough6515 2 года назад

I've read Verify and Home Before Dark. I enjoyed both of them. Have you read any Simone St. James books? I just love her books. They are psychological thrillers with a twist of paranormal.

Asking if you’re team manuscript or team letter is such a big spoiler for the book. I was in the process of reading when I watched this video and I was expecting to find a letter since you mentioned it, completely ruined the plot twist.

Can't listen to this teen sounding voice. She says many words wth that sing-song, annoying lengthening of words, for example: "phone"is "phooooonne.". And then a question at the end with a rise of voice at the end... when there is no question. So, my first sentence would be "Can't listennnnn to this teen sounding voooooice?" She's still going onnnnn.
