Aww, didn't make the list. 🥺 😉 but these look like amazing reads. Will especially check out Bodies to Die For. It has a The Substance vibe and I'm hear for it. :)

A heads up that the Bodies to Die For link doesn’t seem to work. I’m going to check it out. I love thrillers and mysteries.

This list is thrilling!!!!!! From reading your work I already knew your taste and talents were awesome, but WOW, to see them reflected in the books you choose to support (I’m assuming you have a direct or supportive hand in the summary copy for each, too?), magnifies the awesomeness a hundredfold! Thank you so much for sharing these titles, for me and for my mom. She is the avidest of avid readers, and many of these will be part of her reading life in 2025.
