Kirsten (kmcripn) Booklistreader.com had an article about the trend on unreliable narrators and unlikable people: Unreliable Narrators and Unlikeable People: 8 Killer Examples of Psychological Suspense

http://www.booklistreader.com/2015/09...

The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins A Pleasure and a Calling by Phil Hogan The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson All the Old Knives by Olen Steinhauer In the Blood by Lisa Unger The Other Typist by Suzanne Rindell Before I Go to Sleep by S.J. Watson Jack of Spades by Joyce Carol Oates

What do you think? Can you think of examples of this? I remember a traumatic experience reading that classic unreliable narrator in The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I couldn't read a book in the first person for years afterwards! Also, when you go to unlikable characters, may I suggest The Lying Tongue by Andrew Wilson?
