Thriller Room

Welcome to the Thriller Room.

What's life without a mystery? 


First off, I have to say I'm an avid fan of classic thrillers, namely by Agatha Christie, Ellery Queen, John Dickson Carr/Carter Dickson/Carr Dickson, Rex Stout. I've been reading their books in Italian (most of them at a very young age, since my mother was a fan before me, so they were in the house). Maybe one day I'll decide to blog about them too. For now, a very short list of teen thrillers...pure thrillers, without the supernatural edge, or mostly dealing with a mystery, at the very least.
Again, the ones in bold are those I plan to read. The books are listed by authors' surnames. Reviews (and more titles) coming in time. For Thriller books by Christopher Pike, please enter Christopher Pike's Room.

Welcome to Offbeat YA! I love hearing from you and always - I mean always - acknowledge your comments. This used to be a full democracy place, because anyone could comment, regardless of being a registered member of any community. Unfortunately, I had to turn off the Anonymous comment option, because I was getting too much spam that didn't get filtered. So, you’ll need to have a Google account (Gmail will suffice) in order to comment. Sorry about that. Anyway, jump right in! Come on, you know you want to...😉 And be sure to leave a link!
BTW...I don't care if a post is a million months old - you comment, I respond. And you make my day 😃.
Note: this is an award/tag free blog. Sorry I can't accept nominations due to lack of time.
