I love the idea of a sampler!
I really liked Finlay Donovan Is Killing It and Every Last Fear and will definitely continue reading them. They have very compelling beginnings. Finlay Donovan is extremely voicey, which I love and Every Last Fear has great dialogue.
I wanted to like The Lost Village as it's comps are some of my favorite movies but I didn't connect immediately with the author's voice. I am willing to continue reading but it would not be a priority book for me. As for Deep into the Dark, I knew from the synopsis that I would not enjoy it and the first couple of chapters confirmed that.

These kinds of samplers are so helpful and useful, and I always like getting them. Thanks so much to Minotaur Books for doing these.

I did not read any of the samples but I have purchased three of the four books included in this sampler.

These samplers are a great idea. I love getting a small taste of books that I wouldn't normally read and giving myself something new to check out! I highly recommend looking into these samplers if you're curious about the books or the genre.

This sampler led me to purchase both Finlay Donovan is Killing It and The Lost Village. I have not picked up Every Last fear but also was very interested in this one! I am so happy I got a piece of each of these books. I am looking forward to both Finlay Donovan Knocks Em Dead and The Resting Place. What a great snapshot into great novels!

Solid books and I loved the sample of all of these! Such a great way to do it to get people interested

This little sampler was fantastic, and cost me money. I ended up purchasing each book, Thanks, Minotaur!

Oh my gosh! What a tease!! I so enjoyed reading the bits of these stories. They are now all added to my TBR. Can’t wait to read them each in whole!

I loved this sampler and really wanted to read the rest of everything. I started with Findlay Donovan is killing it. It was just the book I needed to give me laughs while still being a mystery/thriller. I don’t want to offer spoilers but Fin is a divorced mother of two who is struggling to stay afloat. Out of mixed communication she is offered a murder for hire job. The cast of characters is varied and well presented that I can see each of them in my mind. A great summer read! Thanks NetGalley for the advance sampler copy

Great stories and definitely made me want to read more of them! I've read two of the books featured in the sampler (and really liked them!). Can't wait to read the other two in the sampler.

I loved The Minotaur Sampler. This sampler includes a preview of four books - The Lost Village, Every Last Fear, Finley Donovan is Killing it, and Deep Into the Dark.

Finley Donovan is Killing It - this book captivated me from the first sentence. The main character is so relatable and authentic. This preview definitely made me want to read this and I was so excited when I received a gifted copy of this.

Every Last Fear - this book also captivated me from the first line. The premise of this book is fascinating. I definitely would read this book based on the preview.

The Lost Village - this preview did a great job setting the stage for this creepy horror story about an abandoned Swedish village.

Deep Into the Dark - this preview did not sell me on this book. It jumped too much between characters and I had no idea what was going on. Based on the synopsis - it looks very promising.

Overall, I enjoyed getting to read a little bit of each book. I will definitely pick up another Minotaur Sampler.

Love sampler books! I ended reading "Every Last Fear". I own "Finlay Donovan is Killing It". And " The Last Village" is on my to be read book list. Unfortunately "Deep into the Dark" is just not my cup of tea, but I'm sure others will love it. Thanks you netgalley and publisher for this gem and keep em coming!

I downloaded this to sample Every Last Fear and was not disappointed. I need to read this book. The sample was just enough to entice me to pick up my own copy!

Minotaur publishes the BEST thrillers! I loved this sampler, and will be all 4 books included in it. I have started Every Last Fear and it's amazing!

Really excited for Finlay Donovan is Killing It! The section I was able to read, I didn't want it to stop. Funny and intriguing. Every Last Fear was also very interesting. I really enjoy these samplers.

These seem like great books to keep and eye out for . The two that stick out to me are finlay donavan is killing it and the lost village. Cant wait to read them.

Amazing sample and made me want to read every single book in it! It was well worth it and hyped up all of the books in the Sample! The publisher even let me know when the next one was out and that was an amazing find! These have been helping me find new reads! It helps when I know a little bit about all of the stories!

This was a great sampler and I found myself wanting to keep reading each so it did the trick. Only one of these were on my radar before this so I was excited to be able to read a bit of the others. I don’t love only getting partial books but I am glad I read these samples!

I really enjoyed reading the four samples. Out of the four books, there are two that I especially enjoyed and have added to my reading list;

The Lost Village is a book that I already had in mind and I loved everything about it. The story is perfect for my tastes - Scandi Crime mixed with a possible paranormal element. I think if I had the whole book to read, I would have stayed up all night to finish it in one sitting! Very excited for this one!

The second book I enjoyed was more of a surprise. Every Last Fear is a book which, from reading the synopsis, I wouldn't have been desperate to read. However, having had the chance to read the first few chapters, I really enjoyed the story. I liked the use of different people's perspectives and the way it switched from past to present day. A story I would be intrigued to finish.

All of these books seem interesting, but especially Finlay Donovan is Killing It, which I already have on audiobook!
