Hi friends,
I love when books surprise me and give me big plot twists! And today in our Best Reads of 2020 I get to show you the books who surprised me in a big way!
It will be a short post as all these plot twists I’ll feature happened at the end of the book and I don’t want to give away any spoiler.
First to win the title is King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo
Talk of a major plot twist at the end! I don’t know in fact if I like that turn of event but it certainly will be interesting to read what happens next!
Second: A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire by Jennifer L Armentrout
The plot twists in this series are many! Some I had guessed others not at all!
I read these in a book club read and I confessed that I was not even sure I had understood everything by the end of book two 😆
Third today is A deadly Education by Naomi Novik
That book ends on a major cliffy that’s a huge plot twist! Galadriel gets a note from her mom and I was all:” What??? Why??? What does she mean by that?” That one was my first read by this author but it won’t be my last!
OK now it’s your turn! What book surprised you with its plot twists this year?
Thanks for reading!
Sophie
And such gorgeous covers to go with the books! 😀 I’m loving this gold theme.
Plot twists!!! Love that Armentrout cover…
That’s a gorgeous one right?
That twist at the end of A Deadly Education really was something!
Right?? And how can we wait for the sequel now???
Daaaamn, I’ve still not read any of these and I really need to get around to them!
I fear that your TBR is growing so fast Autumn 😉
It is!! STOP IT!!! Hahaha
Yes to A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire by Jennifer L Armentrout! I also guessed a few of the plot twists but others blew my mind. Text me if you have any questions ♥. Arielle read it a little while back and we went over so many of the parts together. And now Chelsea is reading it so Arielle and I are diving back into that book and re-reading moments here and there to share our thoughts with her.
I love that its’ like a contagion amidst all of you Jen!!!! That’s so exciting when your friends love the same book and you can gush with each other!
I looove a good plot twist! Since I don’t actively like to try to figure them out (I just let the story unfold) I’m almost always surprised. Can’t wait to experience the twist in Kingdom of Flesh and Fire myself.
I am exactly like you Tanya! I let the story take me away and that’s why I enjo these surprises so much I guess!
I have A Deadly Education coming up soon on my TBR so I’m excited to see it made for you and will look forward to experiencing the big plot twist myself. 🙂
And I can’t wait for you to read it Suzanne!
Ahh! Plot twists are the best!! I still need to try King of Scars. Great list! 🙂
Thank you!!!
I love plot twists (as long as they are done well of course haha)
I really want to read A Deadly Education, and I’ve been getting very curious to Blood and Ash!

Yes it’s an art to do them well and not having them totally out of the blue, making no sense at all!
I haven’t read any of these, but I do adore a good plot twist!! Will need to keep these in mind for 2021!
I hope you’ll find some time to read them and will love them Renee!
Same. Love to be surprised, even if it’s just the way a character grows and changes in a story. Glad you found so many with impressive twists
Me too sam! It’s like unwrapping a gift and discovering an amazing thing you didn’t expect!
I’ll have to try these now- thanks! lol
You are very wlecome Jacquie!
I haven’t read any of these, but I’m always up for a good plot twist. Thanks for the recs, Sophie!
You are welcome teri! Thank you for reading!
I really need a month of reread! The only reason I mention this is because I saw King of Scars in your post!
Bwahahah I should do the same Caro!
Makes me want to make a list!
I do love good plot twists, especially at the end. I’ve not tried any of these….yet.
Laura they surprised me so much!
