| The Little Friend by Donna Tartt |
Totally agree!! If you want any dark/heavy novels to read, I recommend anything by the incomparable V.C. Andrews. Those books are the epitome of heavy/dark. Also, writer Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects, Dark Places and Gone Girl are some great reads. Happy Reading! |
