Finding novels to read seems like a real problem. I start searching and I can't tell the good from the bad. So I'm looking for recommendations in fiction, mystery, suspense, although I also read SF and fantasy stuff.

I found one which I started: Stillhouse Lake by Rachel Caine.

I initially resisted this but it's good so far.
I'm just coming off a few months of KU, when I read a lot of mystery-suspense with female protagonists. Some authors I liked are Sibel Hodge, Kathryn Croft, Catherine McKenzie, Shalini Boland, Claire Seeber, Minka Kent, A. J. Waines, Jane Holland, and Louise Jensen.

For the most part these had accompanying audiobooks, so I listened rather than read. They are on a par with Lifetime movies--entertaining and fun, decently crafted, but not top-tier suspense.

I did not like books I sampled by Sharon Potts, Maggie James, or K. L. Slater.
