And what better genre to pick up than a thrilling suspense or a twisting mystery? None! We’ve got three perfect summer scaries for all those end of summer thrills and chills!

Lies You Never Told Me by Jennifer Donaldson

If you like twists you HAVE to pick up Lies! Told in parallel narratives this shocking story shows how one bad choice can lead to a spiral of unforeseen consequences that not everyone will survive. And trust us: it’s more twisted than a candy cane on Christmas blowing through a windstorm on the Kansas plains.

A breakout hit this summer, I Am Still Alive follows Jess before and after a terrible event that leaves her stranded, struggling to survive alone in the unforgiving Canadian wilderness. A moving and feminist story of heart-pounding consequences, survival, and revenge, this is one you don’t want to miss out on!
