Best Mystery/Thriller Book Review Blogs in 2026

https://onebooktwo.wordpress.com/

One Book Two was founded by Nell and Ivana to compare thoughts on books we've both read. Shortly after it launched in March of 2015, it exploded! Now we have multiple reviewers who read a variety of genres. We don't always get to have two reviews for each book anymore, but we do our best!

I am very open to getting unsolicited ARCs, early finished copies, unabridged audiobooks, and backlist books in my mailbox. There is no guarantee that these will be reviewed, but if they catch my interest, I will read and review them.

Bookangel started as a London bookclub's private site to swap book recs and highlight free books. It opened to other users a few years back after realising that there weren't many sites that focus on UK readers.

I receive no monetary compensation for any reviews I post and I give my honest opinion of the book. Remember - please only submit mystery/suspense fiction. I will not even reply to other book genres. NO ROMANCES, which includes romantic suspense. Please look at what I have already reviewed and liked, to gauge if your work is similar.

I worked in the Canadian publishing industry for 7 years, and loved every minute of it. Now I write book reviews for various publications, and I'm the books columnist for CBC Calgary's Homestretch. I'm the Past President of the Writers' Guild of Alberta Board of Directors and I host various literary events around the city. The majority of the books I review on this blog have been sent to me from the publisher in exchange for an honest review, and all opinions are my own.

Hello strangers! This is a space I’ve created to babble honestly about books. I’ll try to avoid going on and on about them like a leaky faucet and keep it a crisp and clean review site…but I don’t make promises I might not (and probably won’t) keep.

There are two of us who started this site, as a means to express our love of all things pertaining to books. Whether it be a review, an author or model interview, a fun post, or anything that is informative. We also have a few other member participants, who will also give their input from time to time. This is meant to be a fun site for you to sit back, have a drink and discuss your favorite things. It is after all a cafe style place for us to meet.

The blog consists of Shelly (me) and my two reviewers, Beth and Lourdes. We accept review requests based on our schedules. Our calendars fill up pretty quickly, so if you are looking for a review we need at least 8 to 12 weeks prior notice before its released or 8 to 12 weeks to read and review after release.

I started my book blog as a way to have a presence as an editor online, but started enjoying reading and reviewing so much more than I thought. I am based in Australia, so I am always eager to learn about new Australian authors. Currently my favourite genre is crime, whether it's adult fiction, YA or NA. I'm a fan of urban fantasy and contemporary reads as well.

Welcome to Always With a Book! As the name implies, I always have a book with me wherever I go. Like any avid book blogger and book fanatic, I enjoy getting books to review. This is something I never even realized was a part of book blogging until a few months after I started my blog.
