What's the weirdest book you've ever read?

For me, it's Abarat by Clive Barker. It's a beautiful book, illustrated on almost every page, but really, really weird. And somewhat creepy in its weirdness.

House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski, I believe. Amazing book, although it's ending wasn't as good as I had hoped. But it is one of those books that you have to read, it's so bizarre and horrifying.

Abarat 2. 3 when it comes out, maybe. There'll be 5 altogether.

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Odd, odd plot. Odd, odd characters. I couldn't even finish it.

Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy!

Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy! Rolling Eyes Laughing

Bah! That is the funniest thing I've read. Not the weirdest. ^_~ though it is a close call.

Exactly! It isn't weird in the sense we're talking at all!

Edit: Sweet! 400th post! Yaaaaay!

The weirdest book I've read (and it's and oldie) was the Canterbury Tales. Just weird...

Hmmm...I'm thinking "Hexwood" by Diana Wynne Jones (which is her equivalent of "LotR", slogging-through wise.), "The Great Good Thing" by Roderick Townley or "Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking-Glass" by Lewis Carroll.

Whatever Carroll was smokin', I hope it hasn't lasted through the years.

God's Debris: A Thought Experiment by Scott Adams. It all makes sense XD A very intriguing book.

Catch-22, lmao.

I'm with Suzanne on this one. House of Leaves, hands down.

Agreed. I liked them....but they were weird.

Gotta love the dormouse though.

Lolita, just the thought of it
