Thanks for the recommendations. I’ve only read The Silent Patient out of these and I LOVED it! Right from the start I was hooked and there’s no way I’d have guessed that ending. I was convinced I knew but reading the last few pages I was like WTF is going on RN, surely not😂

Girl you just got a new follower! Psychological thrillers are my absolute fav genre hands down. I just read Recursion by Blake Crouch and I highly recommend!
I’m pretty much adding all these books to my want to read in Goodreads! Thanks for the recommendations Hailey! 😊❤️
Home before Dark was one of my top 3 fav 2023 books, i loove Riley!
I love thrillers. Even better when most chapters end in cliff hangers and when the ending is left open to interpretation.
Omg I just love all your recs. Can you pretty please do "if you liked this then you will like.." for psychological twisty thriller/horror. I read The patient yesterday afternoon and I'm obsessed. Reading How to sell a haunted house now and already love it. I need more! Lol 😅
Anyone else just add all the books to there TBR? So excited to see if I love them as much!

Home Before Dark is my RS favorite. It actually scared me. I mean SCARED. Something about the writing just made your mind wander, think and have you grabbing your cell phone just in case😅 I was expecting thriller but this is thriller/horror. Excellent book and Highly recommended.

Changed my mind about The Silent Patient. I'm buying it.
Super late to this party but your description of The Perfect Child reminds me of The Push by Ashley Audrain. Very similar premise but the baby wasn’t adopted. INCREDIBLE book, still has me thinking about it over two years later.
my favorite is definitely psychological thriller 😮💨 like PLEASE mess with my mind, make me think 😭

unlike educators, people love to challenge the authority of mental health professionals. i always preface statements i make around psychology with my background so people know that i’m saying something evidence- based rather than my own opinions. people are very easily triggered by the smallest, most insignificant things when talking mental health- see exhibit a: this comment.
Just so everyone knows the video doesn’t start until 6 mins of blabber advertising
