In The Woods by Tana French
For more psychological thrills that’ll leave you wondering about the reliability of your own memory, try these:
Visitation Street by Ivy Pochoda for a ghost story about teenage girls, grief, and forgetting.
Broken Monsters by Lauren Beukes for a scary-as-hell tale about how the internet never forgets.
Blue Monday by Nicci French for a psychologist navigating the no-man’s-land between dreams, memory,and reality.
The Sense of an Ending by Julian Barnes for a Booker Prize-winning take on how we narrate our own history, truthfully or otherwise.
