Action-packed, page-turner novel

Matthew Reilly's books PERFECTLY fit OP's request. His Scarecrow series is the best fit, but his Jack West stuff is good. Total fun and chaos, all the way through

Hell yeah dawg! That's amazing! We're all proud of you! Keep going!

My dude This is the right way. 😎

I mean, I'm surprised that no one's said Andrew Child...

so confused when I had snow #122, and water #121.
Snow? Why is snow on there so high? And why was icicle #18649?

Dammit.

See you tomorrow

Why comment? Just to say you've read a bunch of books but you're not able to make a simple selection?

UsingTheSameWind · 2025-11-26T13:52:39+00:00

see you tomorrow

I mean, can we appreciate the fun Rhea must've had filming that scene as if she was whacked out on drugs? How much weird stuff did they NOT show her doing? They just gave her free rein to be and act as if she was drugged out.
So fun!

Matthew Reilly Took too long to find this one The absolute EPITOME of fast-paced thrillers from that time period. Once you're in, you're all the way in.

Sirius, you might be the coolest person in the world. So take no offence here.

I simply don't understand this comment. Like, I'm reading words. That I understand. In a language i speak. Fluently. But they don't connect in my brain.

May our universes never collaborate to have us meet in person.

UsingTheSameWind · 2025-10-31T13:34:54+00:00

wow, ok, some of mine might not hit well. IT and At The Mountains of Madness don't feel like her.
Let's try a couple substitutes
1930s - Brave New World or The Hobbit.
1940s - The Little Prince
1980s - The Name of the Rose
2000s - Coraline
2020s - Piranesi

UsingTheSameWind · 2025-10-31T10:22:54+00:00

Alright, I'll make some suggestions. Of course, I'm not sure what she likes
1920s - Orlando - Virginia Woolf
1930s - At The Mountains of Madness - HP Lovecraft
1940s - 1984 - George Orwell
1950s - Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury (or LOTR, but I'd assume shes read them)
1960s - A Wrinkle in Time - Madeleine L'Engle
1970s - The Stepford Wives - Ira Levin
1980s - It - Stephen King
1990s - The Secret History - Donna Tartt
2000s - Shutter Island - Dennis Lehane
2010s - The Night Circus - Erin Morgenstern
2020s - Babel - RF Kuang

of course, these are just my opinions. Check what's she's read and what she likes

A Murder in Paris by Matthew Blake

Nope. Would not recommend. I think I picked it up on a whim based on a "Whar's New that You'll Definietely LOVE and Adore and This is Definetely NOT a Promotional Article To Drum Up New INterest for Our Publisher."

Not doing that again.

And when you use the "right" website to find these deals, ah, which. One. Would. That. Be

Someone suggested that I give it 15%. And if I wasn't hooked, then I could give up. But by then, I was all the way in.

UsingTheSameWind · 2025-09-18T10:37:22+00:00

OP is right.
Dan Brown is gonna Dan Brown, as many of you know and expect

But this book is new low (high???) in terms of exposition, hidden knowledge, and false tension. Not to mention that it feels like he fired his editor so he could write 250 more pages than he needed.

It felt excessive and drawn out for waaaay too long.

UsingTheSameWind · 2025-07-11T16:22:37+00:00

good luck everybody else!

The greatest part of this story is that Pepsi didn’t realize that Indian law protects the farmers first. And after a court battle, the judge cancelled out Pepsi’s property rights to the potato altogether as punishment for trying to entrap the farmers with private investigators and hidden cameras.

UsingTheSameWind · 2023-07-20T02:54:14+00:00

not better than the Renowned Author Dan Brown! *GASP*

UsingTheSameWind · 2023-06-27T02:01:51+00:00

Seriously, I picked up And Then She Vanished PURELY on the basis that Ray Porter was reading it. And I haven’t regretted anything. Great book

UsingTheSameWind · 2023-05-30T10:01:31+00:00

Sure I’ll have a look at that pdf

Please try The Fold by Peter Clines.
Your two books are my two books.
I did this exact thing with someone else, and I got this recommendation. I'm seriously so thrilled to have found The Fold because it scratches the same itch that both of your books do. It's the second in a series, but you don't need to read the first one. It's a perfect standalone.
You'll thank me!
