Steve   (tippetariusuk) Hi.

Im Steve from the Black Country in England.

Love a good thriller - especially of the psychological type :-) and can normally be found reading into the early hours in bed.

Currently reading an ARC of Shalini Boland's The Child Next Door. Started it last night and was just going to read a couple of chapters to get into it. 1.30am and 61% through, i forced myself to put it down lol.

Read via a kindle app on a Nexus 7 android tablet.

Look forward to being friends with you all.

V Myers (vmyers) | 3 comments Hi,

I live in St. Louis, Missouri and am pretty new to the Goodreads groups. I love to read and enjoy most genres though mystery/thrillers are my favorite. I am hoping to discover new (to me) authors and books from other readers.

Looking forward to being part of the group!

Mandy Slater | 1 comments Hi all

I'm a keen reader of psychological thrillers. At the moment I'm reading as many different authors as I can before I start on the MA in Crime Fiction at UEA in September.
I am also just about finishing a thriller for self-publishing -
so I eat, drink and sleep thrillers.
My day/evening job is a music instrumental teacher in Norfolk, UK.

Patricia Bergman (marshop) | 1229 comments Hi all, I love both mysteries and thrillers. Since I have discovered Goodreads, I have won a few very interesting books that I probably would never have discovered on my own.

When I finish a book I hand it off to a friend with instructions to "pass it on".

Ironically, I happen to be reading Clive Cussler's "The Solomon Curse. I love most of your choices of authors & have read several of their books.
