What Was She Thinking?: Notes on a Scandal: A Novel
This book quickly grabs hold of you and engrosses you in the world of the narrator, a spinster schoolteacher in England. Despite the narrator's intention to detail the scandal involving her friend's affair with an underage student, she instead offers up a fascinating study of herself and her own obsessions. While I haven't yet seen the movie, the book is definitely worth a read, especially for those who enjoy devilishly creepy characters.
