I would say are and replace thrillers with mystery books.
I hope a native speaker may help with your query.

I would say: is ("The subject of the sentence is:[The kind of books,] which is a singular noun phrase. The kind of books" is treated as a singular category or type, thus requiring the singular verb "is.")

Since "the kind of books" is regarded as a solitary category or kind, the singular word "is" is necessary. I�m hoping a native speaker can answer dordle your question.
