#TwistedTuesday

Playing catch up -- these books are pretty twisted I think. I've read them all except America Pyscho, which is on my TBR list.

#catchingup on #awesomeautumnbooks #day19 & #26 - #stranger & #twistedtuesday

Finding this to be more accessable than Area X, though it's the size of that collection more than anything is what holds me up.

#awesomeautumnbooks #twistedTuesday
There are a lot of twisted books on the top shelf there, but I think Unravel has a surprising twist that you definitely don't see coming. It's one of the few books that made my mouth drop in surprise when I got to "that part".

I also really like how the Amazon Store lays out the books. It's a perfect place to browse for gifts because everything is cover out & there are reviews & suggestions posted everywhere!

ValerieAndBooks I really liked the Haddon book (Curious Dog...) so I'll have to look up the others ! 7y
Kaylamburson Yes, you def will! @ValerieAndBooks. It's a great way to lay out a bookstore. I guess it makes sense since it's just like their website. 7y
[DELETED] 206653737 Sounds interesting. I've stacked! 7y

Kaylamburson Yay! I hope you like it! Definitely dark and twisted @bookish22 7y
Kaylamburson I do, too! I'm officially obsessed with the store, although I didn't buy anything because I'd rather support indies. Such a struggle! @Eggs 7y
Eggs I have not seen an Amazon bookstore!! But I agree that I'd rather support independent book shops 😎 7y

Mehso-so

A perfect book for #TwistedTuesday ⚰️
I wasn't as repulsed by the descriptive writing in this book as some readers were.. I thought it enhanced the creepy vibe! However, a little over halfway through the initial shock-factors started to fade and I lost interest. Looking forward to reading more about Lizzie Borden though!
#awesomeautumnbooks

Reviewsbylola I felt the same way. 7y
Mdargusch Glad you didn't love it either. Get on to the next book about the Borden Murders because I think you will really like it. 7y

The Secret History | Donna Tartt

I'm still not done with this book but I have until Thursday so that's plenty of time right? I haven't finished yet but so far Everyone in this book is pretty twisted! #readingenvyreadalong #twistedtuesday #awesomeautumnbooks!

Jess7 I saw this one of hers on sale at Barnes and Noble the other day. I think it was like 60 or 70 percent off. 7y
EllieDottie @Jess7 have you read either the secret history or the goldfinch? I didn't care for the goldfinch but I'm really enjoying this one I'm almost finished with it! 7y
Jess7 No I haven't. The Goldfinch is on my TBR though. I wanted to read it awhile ago but when I got it from the library, I quickly returned it bc it was longer than I wanted to commit to with all my other books I was reading. @EllieDottie - is this one as long? (edited) 7y
EllieDottie @Jess7 no it's not as long but still a longer book! About 560 pages! 7y
ReadingEnvy That last section just FLEW by for me, wow. 7y

If you enjoy YA and middle grade books, Anderson is a great author to read.

Slade House | David Mitchell

It's #TwistedTuesday! Perfect for a review of Slade House! I loved this book, no surprise. Just a lovely little bit of Mitchell to tide me over. (Is he writing more books?! Get on it!) It had been a while since I read The Bone Clocks so I didn't remember the details of what was going on, but that was cool bc I got to discover it again. Wondering how to use it for #autumnbingo bc it's a bit specific/unusual...any ideas? #awesomeautumnbooks #ripxii

Natasha.C.Barnes It's not exactly Haunted OR Ghosts! 🤔🤔🤔 Hmmmm 7y
DrexEdit I had to go look up the bingo prompts! I think you could use this for death or ghosts. In a pinch it could work for travel (time travel!). 😊 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @DrexEdit And maybe Halloween or Party Time bc of the Halloween party...just trying to figure out which of these will get me a bingo fastest... 😆 7y

DrexEdit @Natasha.C.Barnes or someone watching, if that gets you there faster. 👍😊 7y
BookishBlonde12 Almost finished with this one. Definitely twisted! 👍🏻 7y
aprilpohren Going to check this one out!! 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @aprilpohren Oh do! It's such a fast read. And #ripxii is discussing it October 1st! 7y

Shot out to @MrBook for highlighting this a while back. A different take on #TwistedTuesday with this one. Heine seems to tackle the nature vs nurture debate in his new book, discussing our society's obsession with genetic research and the way we've misconstrued its findings. As a former biology student, I'm sold. I can't wait to read it.

@Jess7

MrBook Ooh, hopefully you like it! 😁👏🏻👏🏻 7y
alisiakae Ooohhhh....This sounds good! As an adoptee, nature vs nurture comes up often in conversations. Interestingly, I am absolutely nothing like my aparents. 7y

@Jess7

You can't get much more twisted than Joss Merlyn. This is still my favourite Du Maurier book by far.

batsy It's so good. That slow build up of menace, the disorientation she feels sleeping and waking up in that place... 7y
erzascarletbookgasm I really liked this. :) 7y
Moonpa Nice pick! 7y

Libby1 @erzascarletbookgasm and @Moonpa - glad you both liked this one. It made my skin crawl. In a good way! 7y
Libby1 I really liked Rebecca but this one was even creepier for me, @emilyhaldi ! 7y
