A Good Thriller discussion

This thread is where you can chat about all things PIFM, ask questions and once books have been read, review your selected reads. A complete free for all.

PLEASE NOTE:

PIFM is meant to be FUN and not to be taken seriously. I would appreciate it if all participants just chilled and not get worked up about voting, who votes, who doesn't, etc. Please bear in mind that some will just want to vote, many don't come on everyday and most of us have time constraints. I just want a relaxed approach to it all and for you all to just enjoy the process! I'd really appreciate your courtesy in this matter. Many thanks.

Christine, you selected two of my books instead one of Kirsten's and one of mine.

Oops I’m sorry Patricia

I just list my June books and voted for already had theirs up.Please go vote.

Tonya, some of yours had multiple authors for the same title-pls let me know if I have some incorrect!

Thanks Perri for setting mine up. So please go vote on it.

Tonya, I’m glad you enjoy my book list. I’m really trying to read through things I own before buying anything new. I’m having fun getting through the lists I’ve created.
Thank goodness for PIFM it’s a fun way to choose a good read.

Im in a threeway tie. So if you havent voted o my books please do so. TIA

I haven't voted yet, but am planning on it by the middle of the month.

@Melanie I am trying to do that too. I have over 120 books on my kindle that need reading. Some of them I don't even remember getting!

Vickie, I can relate to your kindle book list. I looked at mine and was shocked at the number of books there.

Vicki, that's interesting you didn't like Nine Perfect Strangers. Have you liked any other Moriarty books? The ones I've read I've really liked

I've posted my votes for everyone now so hope it breaks any ties that need breaking :)

Not surprised in this group that The Stranger Beside Me: Ted Bundy: The Shocking Inside Story has pulled out way ahead... has anyone seen the new movie on Netflix about Ted Bundy??

Tonya, The Onion Field arrived at my library, so I'm ready when you are!

Dana, I've seen the TEd Bundy Tapes-is that the one you mean? I also see there's something called Extremely Wicked-not sure that's about Bundy but the actor sure looks like him

I will have to recheck it out maybe tomorrow

There was a film version YEARS ago of The Onion Field was really good.

Perri, I got The Onion Field today ready when you are.

Kirsten, I got The Silkworm so I'm ready when u r. Also I was looking at your fictfact, to see what series we had in common. So I have went and got books to catch up with you on some of your series so we can buddy read. I got these:
The silkworm
Triptych #1
Fractured#2 of Will Trent series
Coffin Dancer #2of Lincoln Rhymes series.
Some of these we are on same one in series. Let me know when your ready.

I've already read of the following that I had put up for my votes that you all already voted on.
Ugly Love- read
Cross #12- currently reading
Still Life#1- I still have to ready but still have it.

Tonya. terrific! I just read two chapters and captivated so far.

Kirsten, I see I could buy it on Amazon. Maybe my library could borrow it for me. I see one with TEd Danson from 2015, but I bet you're thinking of the one with James Wood that apparently launched his career

Yeah, the one I'm thinking of had James Wood and Willem DaFoe.

@Perri I have really enjoyed the ones I have read (I think 3 of them). Nine Perfect Strangers sounded so good to me too. The idea of something going on at a wellness center is right up my alley. But, for me it went nowhere and I thought it just fell flat. So I am always interested to hear how/why someone liked it.

@Dana The Netflix on Bundy was excellent. I have read some books and seen some shows, but that was one of the best ones out there.

Perri, I will start our book tomorrow along with The Silkworm. If anyone wants to join.

Perri, Im on chapter 2 so far.I will keep you updated on my progress.
This book has such small font it may take me a little while reading it but I will get it read.

Kirsten I will be starting The SilkwormbyRobert Galbraith tonight.

I actually read one of my June books, Afterlife by Marcus Sakey, yesterday because I found myself between books and it's been knocking around on my Kindle for a while. I'm going to remove it from my June list (do feel free to change your vote, Perri!)

How'd you like it? I'll change to Little Boy Lost

Hi there I’m reading silkworm and coffin dancer too, I’ve finished fractured. May I buddy read with you? I understand if not. How do I find you on Fiction Fact?

I went to FictFact to find you all and it says FictFact has been closed due to an infraction of Amazons Terms and they have lost their appeal😯

Sure Melanie, I'm starting The Silkworm now. Hopefully I will get some progress on it today. After we finish it then The Coffin Dancer. I haven't read Triptych or Fractured yet? I just checked fictfact also and its closed now I knew all my series. I wonder if there is another site that does the same thing.

Sure Melanie. I'm just starting The Silkworm. Hopefully get some progress in today. Then we are doing The Coffin Dancer. I haven't read Will Trent 1&2 yet.
I went to fictfact and its closed. Now I need my series. I wonder if there is another site that was like that one to help us keep up with them.
If anyone knows of any let me know please.

@ Perri
Very interesting. I saw on the cover it was described as Ghost meets The Matrix and it's a pretty accurate description. I liked that both MCs were FBI agents and so the female MC wasn't looking to the guy to save the day. I can see why it was commissioned to be made into a movie.

Hello again everyone. Kristen I’m sorry I didn’t get to the Buddy Read for Assassin's ApprenticeMy life has been beyond crazy busy over the last few months. Unfortunately busy with some sad things and although I’ve escaped here and there into books, I haven’t been the most organized. As we head into spring I’m hoping things are going to be more predictable.

Tonya...I can start The Silkworm today. Is there a Buddy Read Thread started somewhere? Please direct me to it thanks. Hopefully I want be a wet blanket and forget like I did with Assasain.

I’m finally reading Orphan Train Girl , you all voted for it months ago but I needed to wait for a coy from the library. It is EXCELLENT. I highly recommend it.

Tonya and I read The Onion Field -thanks for the votes Here's my review:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Sophie-Ghost meets Matrix? Intriguing!

Looks like Crawdad for me next month. I want to try and squeeze a few others in.

Crawdad is absolutely wonderful. I can't recommend it enough!! Do squeeze it in!

The Silkworm - I just finished this. Number one, let me say the audiobook is excellent!!

I also found the book thrilling and hard to pause.

I will be reading Three to get deadly. I've already read Ugly Love and Cross.

I finished reading my June pick, , so have started reading the second runner up, .

Tonya I love the Stephanie Plum Novels, I have a habit of reading them in the summer. Fun and light but interesting mystery too.

My June Winner is: The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks...I’ve had this on my shelf for a very long time so looking forward to it.

Let me what you think of it Melanie. I added it to my TBR.
GO on my profile and join Kirsten club Buddy Read With Me that is where the thread is at for THE SILKWORM

We are always to buddy reads on there. We list what we want and ask if anyone want to buddy read.

Melanie, I loved that book. I found it very enlightening. I am sure you will like it.

All are welcome to read The Silkworm with us. I really enjoyed it. It is an excellent audiobook too. The narrator did all the voices really well. I think I will do the whole series on audio it was so well done.

Also, I thought it was much more exciting than book #1.

I just finished The Silworm also. I liked the second half better than the first. What is the name of the third book?

Currently reading Triptych(#1Will Trent) by Karin Slaughter. I've just reread chapter one again and it already has me pulled in.

I'm interested in participating. Please let me know how to get started. Cheers, Ray

Ray, I just started Triptych (#1 Will Trent). Your more than welcome to join us .

Join buddy read with me club. More the merrier.

OK. Just ordered it!

I believe its Career of Evil

I started Triptych today. I have heard so many good things about this series.
I am listening on audible and am not sure about the narrator yet. Also, Will Trent and the cop Michael O (however you would spell it) are not grabbing me yet. I am only an hour or two in though, so I am sure it will get better.
