This list mainly features darker works, some of which put their protagonists through a lot of suffering. I've always believed that a good story needs more than just surface-level thrills. Strong writing, well-rounded characters, and a compelling plot are all essential to a good book. I'll recommend some books that meet these criteria, though I may occasionally include one simply because I like it. If you don't enjoy it, let me know and I'll remove it.
