What books would you recommend for me?

Question

I like the kind of books that have a twist at the end or are kind of horrific. I love Stephen King, i have his book It and i have just watched the movie Misery. I also ordered his book, The shinning. I already have some books on my list and if it would help to find the right kind of book for me here is a list of them: To kill a mocking jay, Mad madame Lalaurie, The great Gatsby, Insomnia and The hunger games. Please do not write The exorcist, i have already read that one and Ray Bradbury's Shadow show and Neil Gaiman's  Smoke and mirrors. Thanks for answering, have a nice day! (i guess its nice saying that, it just felt right :P)

Almost anything by Edgar Allen Poe. Or the short stories by O. Henry.

I love Ray Bradbury, too. Lots of his short story collections (Twice 22 is particularly good) have stories with twists. Few are horrific, but the was great at plot twists.

Hope that helps.
