A lot of these books I personally wouldn't consider thrillers at all... (Pride and Prejudice (#6), for instance. Still 17 people voted for it...)

I totally agree with you! These people have NO CLUE what a thriller is. I am amazed. P&P is sure not a thriller and I wouldn't vote for any on the first page except for Interview with the Vampire and that might be. They need to read the definition of a thriller. FLABBERGASTED HERE.

Unfortunately, I don't think this list is worth saving. It's so bad that I almost wonder if some of these votes are from bots/sock puppets?

After finding 5 more lists exactly like t..."

Yep, just realized the same thing. I can try reporting to GR but it seems unlikely they will do anything about it :(

Here are the similar lists I found, if anyone wants to report them:

Fake list to promote Hail Storm by Brett Arquette.

I was looking for a newly created list in my group, and this book is at the top of nearly every list on the first page. If this doesn't get a book removed, I don't know what else could.

I think the best way to handle this is to ban this book, and all books by this author for one year.

If Goodreads can't manage these lists better, I'm not going to spend time on Goodreads anymore. I feel like I'm wasting my time and just getting frustrated.

Removed:
The Valley of Horses The Clan of the Cave Bear, the Valley of Horses, the Mammoth Hunters, the Plains of Passage, The Shelters of Stone

Good work! Someone needs to remove the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People which was near the bottom of the list.

I think someone got it; I looked through 300 and didn't catch it. Do you remember what number it was?

I sure don't recall and would have to go thru the entire list again. Hopefully, someone removed it. Thanks for your work.

Number 437 which is The Four Agreements should be removed as that must be the most boring book I ever attempted.

Ironic, a fake list made for a notorious spam book (Operation Hail Storm) is now topped by another spam book boosted by indistinguishable sockpuppet accounts: A Story of Yesterday
