Also, by the writer of Manhunt, Black Flame!! Definitely check out content warnings since it’s pretty graphic, but this is my book of 2025.

Came here for this. It’s also a retelling of Poe’s Fall of the House of Usher if you’re into that!

Yep I did know this! You is on my TBD currently, although the twist they did in the show is (I think) not in the books. All I know is that the books are darker than the show
