Something Twisted This Way Comes

I was asked to create a customized review list for Shepherd.com, whose goal is to “create an experience like wandering around your favorite bookstore but reimagined fot the online world.”

The following is my list: The best books in which mystery is given an existential makeover.
List includes: The Natashas (Yelena Moskovich), Kafka on the Shore (Hauriki Murakami), New York Trilogy (Paul Auster), Her Body and Other Parties (Carmen Maria Machado), and Room to Dream (David Lynch and Kristine McKenna).
