I’ve just recently gotten into reading thrillers and some of my favorites are Girl on the Train, The Night She Disappeared, They Came to Baghdad, Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, etc
But, its starting to get really really repetitive. Obviously theyre not all the same, but its a lot of ‘loner female (or housewife) who goes on an unexpected journey.’ I tried to read some Egyptology stuff like Elizabeth Peters but even that falls into the same general cliche
I guess I’m trying to figure out what else is out there? I’ve loved a lot of these books so far but I’ve started not being able to get into them because it feels like a rinse and repeat. I really like the adventure / crime / thriller general area so honestly I’m down for anything

If modern books start being repetitive, you must turn to the classics:
“The Murders in the Rue Morgue” by Edgar Allan Poe – one of the scariest things I read in my life.
