The book: Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn
The hook: A journalist faces her own dark past and family secrets when she goes back to her hometown to investigate the grisly murders of two preteen girls.
Fear factor: Not gonna lie, just thinking about this book again gives me the heebie-jeebies. Not to say too much, but there are some straight-up nauseating moments. Definitely not a feel-good story.
