    Dear All,

    I have been looking for this book I had read a description of, and now I cannot find it anywhere, I searched Reddit and my "want-to-read" on Goodreads, but no luck! I hope you would be able to help.

    The book description talked about a remote village with a very serene, almost utopian society, in which everything seems perfect, but then it slowly turns dark and twisted and it is a "proof" that seemingly utopian societies will always turn into a reality (not necessarily dystopia). Not sure if there was a mystery or a sudden negative event, but could as well be. The book is recent.

    I will appreciate all your help!

    EDIT: I found it! Arcadia by Lauren Groff

    1. Could be The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas by Ursula Le Guin? Short story which is a very classic example of exactly what you’re describing.
