Reading Recommendations from Just Desserts members – April 2023

Hey, mystery fans! Looking for something good to read?

At the April 2023 Just Desserts meeting, 18 group members and guests participated in our discussion of the 2023 One Book One Nebraska selection, The Mystery of Hunting’s End by Mignon Good Eberhart.

Following the “assigned reading” portion of the meeting, we held our monthly round robin in which attendees shared recommendations of what other books they’ve been reading recently, with an emphasis on mysteries/suspense/thrillers. We continued a new policy this month that began in February, to make sure everyone got a turn in the Round Robin – everyone could share a single title during their verbal recommendations, but could share additional titles on a paper form – ALL titles recommended are shared below, but those that were specifically talked about in the Round Robin have an * next to them.

Here’s the list of mystery, thriller and suspense books recommended by Just Desserts members in April 2023:
