It’s that time of year again … when parents everywhere breathe a deep sigh of relief as they no longer are in charge of keeping their youngsters busy for a good eight hours a day.
With that in mind, I thought it would be fun if us adults went back to school, too.
The following five mystery and thriller books all have one thing in common—they revolve around school one way or another.
Take a look (after all, with the kids back in school, think of all the time you’ll have to read!).
3. The Punishment She Deserves by Elizabeth George
You can check out my full review here, but in short, when a deacon is murdered, it’s a group of college students who end up being in the center of the investigation.
4. Christine by Stephen King
Ah, the classic love triangle gone bad … plus, an evil car.  This is Stephen King’s classic story of the car’s torment of three high school kids.
Yes, yes, I get that Carrie is probably his most famous high school horror story, but quite honestly, it’s probably one of my least favorite Stephen King books. If you haven’t read this one, it’s worth it to check out.
