Something you thought you would love that turned out to be awful, or vice versa? A great plot twist that blew your mind?

What was the last book that surprised you in some way?

    Magic’s Pawn by Mercedes Lackey. From what little I knew about Lackey, I thought she wrote fun pulp fantasy novels, so I read the book after a particularly heavy downer book. It has a gay romance and magical psychic horses; how could it not cheer me up?

    And then I proceeded to sob uncontrollably on and off from the middle of the book onward.
