As I think you all know by now, I love a good book, and more than anything, I love a book with a twist I don’t see coming. I especially like ones where I think I have it all worked out and then the twist comes and it’s not the one I was expecting.
Below are five of the best books I’ve read in ages with twists that you won’t see coming:
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
Read the blurb/get it (aff links: info at the end of the post) here
Dying for Christmas by Tammy Cohen

The Rumour by Lesley Kara

Island by Richard Laymon

I love books with a surprising twist! Thanks for sharing these 5.
I really liked Gone Girl. Usually I’m all over it but not with that one. Clever.
Yeah I definitely didn’t see that one coming!
I am in awe of authors who can do this!
Me too!
Love a twist in a book, movies too.
I haven’t read any of these but they sound great! So often I do see the twist coming (I think that’s because of all the psychology I’ve studied) and I think that takes a little something away from the story so I love a good twist that takes me by surprise.
It’s so good when a book totally surprises you
I haven’t read any of these and honestly can’t remember the last time somebody got me with a good surprise. Joe Hill maybe? Too long, that’s for sure
