Jeneva Rose
Jeneva Rose has been all over our Goodreads account, thanks to her bestselling novel, The Perfect Marriage. This book (and her others) often highlight the distrust we have for even the people we are closest to. Oh, and she's also created a The Housemaid-esque literary universe, like Freida, with the follow-up, The Perfect Divorce.
Lucy Foley
In Lucy Foley's books, one night can change everything, whether its a wedding reception or a high-profile party. These stories will have you playing your own mini-game of Clue as you try to decide who is the murderer. Look forward to the adaptation of The Guest List, coming to Hulu soon.
Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Mystery books don't have to be scary and suspenseful. Just look at Jennifer Lynn Barnes, The Inheritance Games. It's much more akin to a puzzle than an escape room. Still, it will have you on the edge of your seatβenough so, you'll be flying through these books one day at a time.
