Also, have you read The Beach by Alex Garland or A Simple Plan by Scott Smith? They are among my favorite books and they seem to fit your horror/thiller bent. Give them a look if you haven't already.

Nice choices Ryan I will be buying Joe Hill's book next week on release and I agree with your view of A Simple Plan...one amazing book and I read it many years ago on first release.

The Devil all the time looks brilliant Ryan..just put an offer in on ebay as it was advertised cheap and if do not win will download for the kindle...thanks for that great recommendation...


just won my copy on ebay at a bargain price and am really look forward to reading...

Also loved Adventureland which I read a few years back.
I'm not sure if there is a separate thread for the genre I'm about to ask for recommendations in, but I love post-apocalyptic horror like Bird Box by Josh Malerman, or just post-apocalyptic fiction in general that doesn't involve zombies. I also really enjoyed Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel and am totally making my way through The Children of Men by PD James. Does anyone have any suggestions for "If you like...then you might like..." for those books?
If you're still looking for a good series to get into, World's Scariest Places series by Jeremy Bates is a favorite of mine. There are about five in the series and Suicide Forest is the first. Did not end the way I expected and I admire Bates being able to make you feel like you were in the forest with the characters. I know the movie The Forest (no relation to the book, it seems) will be out soon, but I would definitely read Bates before seeing it.

Brian Keene's The conqueror Worm series.

I loved it and can't get that image of that bloody tent glowing orange/yellow in the deep forest out of my mind:) I also recently enjoyed Inheritance IInheritance and have loved all the weird westerns by Heath Lowrance espec The Long Black Train and That Damned Coyote Hill....my review

My fav books from the past include the one and only The Shinning by Mr King and a little gem I was recommended and only read recently called Greely's Cove by John Gideon Greely's Cove
Hopefully that gives an idea of my tastes and I look forward to some recommendations and a way to get me out of this no mans land I am now in...with no book that I want to read and we all know as avid readers we cannot stay like this for very long :((
