You know the classic “surprise twist” prank, right? I’m talking about books that sneak a laugh‑in‑the‑face of the whole plot. One of my faves is *The Book Thief* – it starts with a quiet, innocent vibe and then flips the whole scene like a magician’s trick. If you want something that’s a literal mind‑bender, try *Gone Girl* – the way it flips the story’s whole direction will have you looking at the ending like you’ve been pranked by the author himself. Both will keep you on your toes, just like a good joke.
