Tuesday, January 17, 2023

By Diana Tramontano and Sherri Puzey

We’ve all been there before: nothing on your TBR sounds good; you’re picking up the remote more than the book you’re halfway through; and you know the title your friend is raving about probably is amazing, but you just can’t bring yourself to buy it. You’re in a reading slump, and our recommendation for the fastest way out of it? Pick up an impossible-to-put-down book! We’ve rounded up the below thrillers, mysteries, and suspenseful stories to help get you out of that reading slump and back into your reading groove.
