I read a thriller for the first time in ages yesterday and it was a complete "OMG! I FORGOT THESE EXISTED!" kind of moment. Don't get me wrong, I like fantasy and dystopian fiction and all kinds of things but it just felt so *fresh*. I'll read few more and then start to complain that it's too easy to figure out who the baddie is but in the meantime I'm in love with thrillers again.
