Hey /lit/

I'm looking for a book that's challenging, with a lot of story twists and a certain degree of unsettledness.
A story that leaves you kinda disturbed but also makes you want to read further.

I know i suck at discribing.
But i didn't get to read many books yet, so if you suggest anything that fits what i discribed, i'm good.

The Man Who Was Thursday, by Chesterton

try it, it's got lots of twists and turns and the ending is like totally fucked up

Thomas Pynchon - if you even notice the twists, that is, as most of the time he doesn't seem to be very keen on emphasizing them. But overall his stories are very challenging, disturbing and unsettledness-inducing.

JG Ballard's Crash is pretty disturbing but I don't remember it having twists.
