I’m having flashbacks and nightmares for the last week or so (I’ve been raped and molested as a child and a lot of other stuff) I need a dark read. It helps me take myself from my own issues and feel less alone.
But I need it to be graphic, detailed and just overall fucked up book. I need blood, rape, disturbing scenes.
Yet still with plot. It does NOT have to have a happy ending either.

Not sure if it checks all the boxes you’re looking for, but ‘Pet Sematary’ by Stephen King is pretty dark.
‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ by Stieg Larsson is also dark.
Triptych by Karin Slaughter
Rainbow, Rainbow a collection of queer short stories most of which include CSA, made me feel less alone; it’s very bleak.
