The System Is The Monster
Fiction has always been where truth hides. Across horror, thriller, literary fiction, fantasy & mystery every book on this list has something to say about power, who holds it, who destroys it, and how it reproduces itself.

Phenomenal list!! Thank you for sharing! Do you have any favorites??
A lot of them are still on my TBR shelf, but the books by Rivers Solomon (I have read all of those) will probably remain at the top of my favorites list for years to come! Beautiful writing, hard hitting topics... all in all they destroyed me in the best way.
Oh I adore Rivers Solomon!!! I completely agree 🥹
