Who doesn't enjoy solving riddles? Every novel in one of these categories tests the limits of our brain's ability to handle suspense and mystery. These books aren't able to pique our interest in the intricate narrative twists and make us think harder than a standard literary novel. We always have it set in. Since there are enormous, high risks involved. And if our suspicions were correct, we want to know. Therefore, we try to figure things out as we go along or get fixated on the direction a book is taking us in.
