Pretty much any book by Brandon Sanderson. Some plot twists you do see coming but most take you by suprise. Mist born and Steelheart

I’ll second that! Already I didn’t get upset watching the film. I immediately turned to my daughter and said “just read the book! ” as she say there crying. The book was SO much better ?

I’m on the 3rd one A Storm of Swords, and there was a major plot twist that wasn’t in the show at all. I was really shocked.

Got to be Fingersmith by Sarah Waters. There are a few plot twists that you don’t see coming, but the main one absolutely blows you away!!! Plus it’s a brilliant book in every way, just as a bonus 🙂
