I'll start, so as a teen I stumbled across a book called," Someone comes to town, someone leaves town." The synopsis caught me as it's about a man with a mountain as a fathera washing machine as a mother and one brother that is dead and trying to harm him. I'll admit some of the technical terms were too much for my developing mind but it has stuck with me all these years.

What is the wackiest / craziest book you've read and did you enjoy the ride?

There’s a short novel called I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman. It’s a bleak dystopian future story that was unique.

Paradise Rot by Jenny Hval was like reading the thoughts of a deranged college student who is trying to figure out her sexuality.

Jawbone by Monica Ojeda is a slow burn of a psychological horror. It was so out there but it was so good.

I love weird books.
