Pairs well with: A seltzer on the beach
I read Something In The Water at the beginning of quarantine and have found myself repetitively recommending it to people who are looking for a great beach thriller. It has a good balance of twists and turns without getting too dark.
The book actually starts at the ending but there are enough twists throughout that it’s hard to figure out how it will even get there. We then go back and see Erin and Mark on their honeymoon where they find a mystery in the water. Their decisions after the discovery will give you the same feeling as when you watch someone in a horror movie go into a dark basement alone. *Disclaimer: you may scream WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT while reading.* If you’re looking for a thriller but nothing too crazy on the gone girl scale this is a great choice.
