Some of my favourites have been:
– ‘And Then There Were None’ by Agatha Christie
– ‘The Shuddering’ by Ania Ahlborn
– ‘The Long Walk’ by Stephen King
– ‘Behind Her Eyes’ by Sarah Pinborough
– ‘The Plot’ by Jean Hanff Korelitz
I need books where the author isn’t afraid to follow through with a possibly controversial, messed up ending. Lots of the recent endings have been like ‘Despite what they went through, they found that their lives were better after the fucked up experience, & they lived happily ever after’ 🫠 Thank you for any suggestions.

Have you read insomnia by Sarah Pinborough? She’s my new favorite modern author. She’s amazing.
Also the good girls guide to murder trilogy is amazing. I’m rereading it for thr 3rd time (4th time for the 3rd boom because it’s such a perfect ending) it gets progressively darker through each book until the ending. Perfection 🤌
