"The 3rd Degree," by James Patterson. It was so good compared to the others that I read.

The Charlie Parker series. They are great. I am anxiously awaiting the new one. That's the most recent, but there are lots more. I'm kind of crazy about dystopian novels. I sat up all night reading Wayward pines. Also The Strain. It's a good thing I'm retired. When I was working, I could only do that when I had a day off.

Excellent choices

It was love at first sight.
Carl Panzram a journal of murder by Henry Lesser. henry was a screw in the last prison Carl was in and the only man he ever trusted in any way. Carl was brought up by religious people who beat him mercilessly whether he was good or bad. He decided might was right and hated all humanity including himself. he never changed his beliefs ever even with the noose about to go around his neck. he was an evil diabolical man but I left the book feeling respect for him and kind of admiring him.

That must be new. It is nto yet available for download on the NLS BARD library.
Just to get a feel for the author, because i dont' believe I read anything from him before, i put "Pygmy" on my "to read" list.
@snytiger6 he’s probably one of my favorite authors. Invisible Monsters isn’t a new book and should be everywhere. I would check out your local book store. I still enjoy the search
@Freethinkerr Being partially blind, I download audio bersions of books from the NLS BARD system. Sometimes ehy do not record books too quickly, or even in order, which is frustrating when a book is a sequel to another one.
Thee is also the issue that if a book was first published outside of the U.S. tht the title in the U.S. can be different. That happened with some Sherlock Holmes stories and some Agatha Christie books as examples.
So, I've already downloaded "Pygmy" to my phone and will probably get to it in two or three days. If I liek that one, I'll put the rest by th tauthor in my "to read" download cue.
@snytiger6 is there a way you can get it through Audible.com ? I know they have a vast library of books. Or maybe I can try to send you the Audio file myself?
@Freethinkerr Thanks, but it will eventually be available through the library I normally use. In the mean time if I like "Pygny", I'll just put all the avaailbele books by the author into my "to read" list for future downloads.
This site recommends books faster than I can read them all. So,it won't be like I wot' have anytign to read.
Enjoy being online again!
