Reptile Memoirs (original title in Norwegian: Krypdyrmemoarer, lit. 'Reptile Memoirs') is a 2020 psychological thriller novel by the Norwegian author Silje O. Ulstein (1985–). Set between Ålesund and Kristiansund, Norway between 2003 and 2017, it is written from the alternating perspectives of student Liv, mother Mariam, police officers Roe and Ronja, and Burmese python Nero. It details the intertwining mysteries of the kidnapping of Mariam's daughter, Iben, and the death of Liv's friend Anita and her daughter Aurora.
The book received critical acclaim from major reviewers and authors. It was praised for its plot, originality, suspense, themes, and the characterization of Liv and Nero. In writing Reptile Memoirs, Ulstein drew from Nordic Noir influences, as well as biblical mythology and research on snakes.
Reptile Memoirs was first published in hardcover in 2020 by Norwegian publisher Aschehoug Forlag. It has since been released in paperback and also as an audiobook and ebook. Since its release, Reptile Memoirs has been translated into 13 languages, and publishing rights been sold to 13 publishers.
