We’ve reached the most miserable part of summer. By this point in July, you’ve probably already been to a cookout or two, oohed and aahed at fireworks, and shown off your cutest swimsuit at the pool. Pride Month is over. The jaunty tunes of the ice cream truck have lost their novelty. The summer joy has come and gone, and yet the punishingly hot weather remains. How are we to survive the scorching months to come? With some bone-chilling thrillers, of course!
While you’re sweating excessively and bemoaning the horribly hot outdoors, it’s crucial to remember that cooler days are ahead. That’s why “Christmas in July” has become a bizarrely popular thing. Personally, I’m a Christmas-hating Scrooge, and there’s nothing I want to think about less in July than that corny, commercialized holiday. But an icy, winter-set mystery? Now we’re talking! I’ve got three book recommendations for mystery/thrillers with snowy settings that will send chills down your spine, plus one book coming out this fall that you can pre-order now. Pull your reading chair over to the strongest A/C vent in your home, put an ice pack on the back of your neck, and cool off with these thrillers.
