Piranesi was that book for me
@rachel1021
For me it was The Twisted Ones by T. Kingfisher.

"Memory of Water" by Emmi Itäranta, I've read it yesterday. Just wanted to do 2-3 hours reading and then some housework... Well... Put on "dark fantasy cello music for deep focus" and give it a go! Eerie, poetic, dystopian, catching in it's strange beauty, Emmi writes beautifully. Couldn't stop!
@Joeyolwagen
Empire of the Vampire, the first page sets a tone for the world like nothing else I've ever read.
@Barryislarge
Sodergren's the Haar really did that for me. Muriel is a queen
@danielaweberdani

@annirose5835

@wewillrust

@juliasokol8121
Flowers for Algernon! The narration is intriguing from the start :-)
@ThePortjumper
Recently? Dungeon Crawler Carl. A page-turner and just so downright absurd and easily digestible. I had a lot of fun reading that.

Lulu Dean's Little Library of Banned Books which I just finished is one that is going to live in my brain rent free for a while.

Clive Barker, Weaveworld. “Nothing ever begins. There is no first moment from which this or any other story springs…” followed immediately by engaging action and characterization. Also, The Damnation Game, with a peculiar bit of gambling amid the ruins in 1945 Germany. Also, Kristine Kathryn Rusch’s Diving Universe series, which has kept me moving through more than a dozen novellas and novels, each strongly opening with solid hooks and rewarding my attention each time.

Circe by Madeline Miller
@leenakoponen5156
The Invocations by Krystal Sutherland ( witchy, dark and one of my favourite reads this year). Every Exquisite Thing by Laura Stevens and Little Thieves by Margaret Owen also. And just finished A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher, could not put it down!
