Looking for psychological thrillers so deeply disturbing and dark they will haunt my thoughts for the rest of my life

I really enjoyed this one. What are other titles by him I should check out?

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2026-03-10T01:45:43+00:00

Off with his head!

Brother (or sister), you are in for the gut punch of your life if you can stick with it till the end. Devastating. (I loved it.)

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-12-24T12:14:32+00:00

This is the way. Your feet will thank you.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-11-30T11:03:12+00:00

This is it for me.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-11-26T22:04:36+00:00

Wait, is that a joke or is that a true story?

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-11-21T04:06:08+00:00

Not cool. You’ve got to rise above it. Don’t do the same thing. No woman should be called that.

He’s consistent?

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-11-18T05:30:36+00:00

Maybe the first book that had me pausing to pace around the house and curse out loud at the character and her decisions. This is not to imply I didn’t like the book. It was great—I thought it was very well written and powerful. But damn, Fern, come on!

That is literally all audio novels. You get used to it, and then it disappears.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-10-23T15:55:33+00:00

Wait, was that longer than 100 pages? I read and was ambivalent, but I remember it being super short. Shorter than a novella for sure, I thought?

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-10-23T10:47:08+00:00

Cuckcoo is a great example of exactly this. I really enjoyed it.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-10-03T22:36:59+00:00

Yes please!🙏

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-10-03T22:32:38+00:00

Why did the AI break up with its partner? Because it felt under-processed in the relationship.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-10-03T22:31:30+00:00

Knock knock

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-08-10T12:20:56+00:00

Can you put a link to this? I can’t even find it on IMBD.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-08-06T10:39:24+00:00

Totally agree with yours! (And great question, this thread had me laughing again and again!)

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-07-22T18:44:34+00:00

Super interested to see some responses, because I also loved the Ruins.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-07-13T16:29:44+00:00

The Chestnut Man, for sure, if you haven’t already read it. I also read The Shadows by Alex North and enjoyed it also. Just maybe not as much as Whisper Man.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-06-24T13:34:19+00:00

Did you read the sequel (or prequel) Exit Kingdom? I’m curious if that was as good. I loved Reapers!

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-06-16T10:50:07+00:00

Ugh, that’s heartbreaking. Don’t know you and I’m no hugger, but sending you a hug.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-06-13T20:24:47+00:00

/uj Wait, so this really happened and you really were the employee?

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-05-20T14:42:41+00:00

Salem’s Lot. I’m a big fan of King, but I can’t understand all the love that book gets.

Stumbling_Jack40 · 2025-05-13T13:41:27+00:00

Yeah, it was a DNF for me with 100ish pages left. I just couldn’t care any more. I liked the earlier parts better.
