One of my favourite type of books are the ones that you walk away from with your mind blown because of the plot or the ending and I thought I would share them with you today. Feel free to leave a comment saying what books blew your mind and if you’ve read the ones on my list.
- Scythe – Neal Shusterman – Boy oh boy did this book keep me hooked and through twists and turns in as it went on. Whenever I thought I had it sussed, there was a curve ball thrown straight at my face and the second instalment is the exact same (or maybe even better). Scythe centres around two apprentice Scythes as they learn the trade of killing in a society where people can no longer die. Scythes are meant to be good and unbiased people who put a lot of thought and effort into who should be next to die as they fill their quotas for the year, but it turns out there are bad Scythes too who enjoy killing their quotas and who do it in violent ways. Honestly this series is awesome and I cannot wait for the next book to arrive in September.
- A Court of Thorns and Roses – Sarah J Maas – we all know how much I love Sarah J Maas, I could not speak highly enough of Throne of Glass and then she wrote this book and the whole series and honestly, it is so much better. I was hooked from the first chapter of book one and the pages kept on turning. I was mind blown towards the end and even now years later, I still cannot get over the first book. AMAZING! Read it if you haven’t already.
- The Storyteller – Jodi Picoult – Jodi Picoult is an author who’s endings you never see coming and The Storyteller is the best of all. I was gobsmacked in the best possible way. Even after rereads, this book still blows my mind. I am not even going to tell you the plot outline. Just read it and let your mind be blown alongside mine.
- Behind Closed Doors – B.A Paris – This book from start to finish is superb. The ending blew my mind but there were moments throughout that were the exact same. I read it begrudgingly after my mum and sister kept telling me to read it and I am glad to this day that they did. I need to reread this book again soon – and I’m not going to tell you the plot of this book, go into it without knowing anything about the plot because it is so much better.
