    1. One that keeps popping up in my head as dark is “Ijskoude handen” its a Dutch book though and not sure whether there’s a translation of it. 

      It’s about a guy who continuously has cold hands (to understand this, spoiler needs to happen, therefore I don’t explain it) and a lot of murder happens with cruelty. It’s half true-story. Half of it is true, other half is fiction.

    2. My Absolute Darling by Gabriel Tallent

      It’s about a young girl that was groomed by her own father. Its absolutely heartbreaking.

    3. AutumnalSunshine on

      Gregory Ashe has a series called *The First Quarto.*

      Great characters, great plot, but Jesus, it’s so dark that I was having to take breaks to shake off the break, despondent feeling.

      The amazing part is that one of the main characters is perky and funny, and the dialogue between the main two can be a riot. But one of the characters is so broken and the situation they’re in…

      Highly recommend if you’re ok with dark.
