Dear Diary: Faded Home by Hirokatsu800

After losing all of his memories, a man wakes up in an unknown world where nothing makes sense. All the natural laws are broken, the objects have no physical logic. The only thing he has is his own mind and a diary to write everything he thinks of during his loneliness. Will he be able to achieve what he wants? To escape this new universe and go back home, to remember what happened and why he is lost, to finally find others like him in a world that isolated him? Or will he be trapped there forever with nothing more than a diary? "Dear Diary: Faded Home" is a psychological thriller that is meant to show a reality, but also an illusion of the real world. While the story is pure fiction and it is not based on real events, it can also happen in the real world even if we are not aware. But after all, reality can also be an illusion.

Fragmented by Ruidafish

Who are you when your memories aren't your own? When your body isn't yours to control? Danika wakes up in a cold, sterile facility with no past, no identity-only a burning pain in her skull and a voice in her head that doesn't belong to her. The scientists call her a subject. The voice calls herself M. And the only thing Danika knows for sure is that she doesn't trust either of them. As she's thrust into brutal tests and forced to uncover the truth about herself, Danika realizes she's more than just a prisoner-she's a weapon. There's something inside her, something dangerous, and the ones who created her aren't the only ones after it. A war is brewing between those who want to control her and those who want to destroy her. However, with her mind fracturing and those she trusted turning against her, she's running out of time to choose where she stands. And the worst part? The more she learns, the more she starts to wonder... Was she ever meant to last?

It's Cold Upstairs | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Who are you, really, when your own memories may not serve you? When the 'you' of just a year ago is a stranger to you today? When your own psyche blurs the lines between complex and insane? Two people, three minds, and an unresolved mystery converge between the pages of a decade-old notebook. What happens next proves that identity and self are ephemeral concepts, and that murder does not always leave a body. ❖❖❖ Content Warning: This book contains dark themes and depictions of psychological distress that may be disturbing to some readers. Proceed at your own discretion.

Crimson Veil by Veyra_00

"Only one of you gets to leave." Himani wakes up in an abandoned asylum with no memory of how she got there. She's not alone. ... She soon realizes the asylum isn't just haunted-it's watching them. The walls shift. The whispers grow louder. The past refuses to stay buried. And then... the first body drops. A cryptic message appears: "One of you has been here before."

Because in a place where reality bends and the truth is a weapon, trusting the wrong person... might just be the last mistake she ever makes. A dark psychological thriller filled with horror, mystery, and slow-burn romance. The question isn't who will escape-it's who will survive.

The Illusion Trap by Prasana_Layan

Reality is perhaps no more than a dream. But what happens if one day we ask ourselves if we are dreaming our own reality? Is the world we live in objective or a reflection of our inner world? The Illusion Trap invites us on a journey where the spiritual, philosophical and scientific search for answers are intertwined in a twisting, multi-pronged story. Throughout the plot, the veil is gradually lifted on the truths of a past lost in a mystical haze, and the question is outlined through a duel of opposites that build a dualistic world: where is the line between reality and virtuality, rationality and mysticism, oppression and freedom? If reality is not independent of us, can we ourselves shape our own world every day with our thoughts and feelings into what we want it to be? Is there free will and to what extent can we live it? This book does not offer definitive answers, but encourages you to ask, reflect, meditate and find your own truth. A story that can lead you to yourself - if you are ready to look in the mirror.
