Hello everyone, I'm Gilbert Cruz and this is the Book Review Podcast.

We have a double dose of delight here on the show today, a summer recommendation episode

in two parts.

First, we'll have our wonderful thriller column, Sarah Lyle, who writes for the times about

everything from the royals to the Westminster dog show to talk about some of her favorite

thrillers, as well as a few titles she's looking forward to this particular summer.

Then we'll be joined by Jumanica Teeb, an editor here at the Book Review, who will talk

about some interesting and notable titles coming out over the next three months.

I am here with Sarah Lyle, the delightful thriller columnist for the New York Times Book

Review among other responsibilities.

Sarah, thank you so much for being here.

It's really nice to be here.

You read so many thrillers, you write about so many thrillers.

I want to ask you about thrillers that you've read recently and that are maybe coming

out the summer.

But first, let's take a step way back.

What are thrillers that you would recommend to anyone who's going on a trip?

It's such a personal thing.

There's so many different kinds of thrillers, as you know, and what people want to read

is very much individual to what turns them on.

To some people, love a nice cybercrime thriller, other people like a spy thriller, some

people like psychological thrillers, some people like gory murders.
