    Looking for books that give you that weird aftereffect where normal life feels slightly different for a bit after you finish.

    Not full-on scary. More like standing in line somewhere and suddenly noticing how automatic everything feels.

    Hard to describe, but I’m guessing some of you know exactly what I mean.

    A couple that did that for me were Amatka and A Fair System, Probably. Different books, but they both left me with that same low-key off feeling for a while after.

    Looking for more like that.

    1. I just finished The Book of Guilt by Catherine Chidgey and it has left me feeling a bit like this.
