My favorite book is Frankenstein. I generally like things that are psychological and philosophical. Sometimes dark in a twisted way(but more in a stimulating psychological way than in an actual scary horror way), or just dark in a depressing way, but most importantly genuinely thought-provoking and reflective.

A recent one that comes to mind is Yellowface by R. F. Kuang. I won’t spoil it, but it is dark.

In general i would always recomend Hopscotch for something like this, but lots is lost in the translation.
