I really enjoy reading books narrated by unreliable narrators. It is so fascinating to me! I've complied a list of books with crazy narrators.
Patrick Bateman from American Psycho by Brent Easton Ellis
Holden Caulfield from The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
Esther Greenwood from The Bell jar by Sylvia Plath
Humbert Humbert from Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
Lia from Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson
Some would argue that Nick Carroway from The Great Gatsby should make this list too... but I'm unsure of how I feel about that. What do you think? Whose your favorite crazy narrator?
