I've never heard of this book or writer, but I'm definitely going to check it out now!!zeldas_lullaby wrote:My fave book for a weird reason? Hm... Imaginary Girls by Nova Ren Suma because it was really, really quirky and odd. Entirely unpredictable, atmospheric, and full of subconscious, dream imagery.

I don't have the DSM's, but I love reading psych textbooks about mental disorders too!! Weirdness rules!LivreAmour217 wrote:In college and beyond, I've actually enjoyed reading through the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th ed, as well as the fifth edition. While many of my fellow psych majors find these books cumbersome and confusing, I find them fascinating and even a little amusing. I don't really know why this is, and the only explanation is that I am indeed very weird.

YAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSS, THIS BOOK.amadams97 wrote:Perfect World by Brian James. He is a fantastic author, but I loved this book for more than just because it was a good book. His writing style is unique, and the format of the book was the first thing that interested me. His characters talk in italics and it was easy for me to skim over and make sure it was something I wanted to read. So what about you guys? Anything out there that you like for a reason other than (and because of) the good writing?
Also Before Wings, by Beth Goobie. I've always loved the story, for some reason, even though I don't read much YA anymore.

I was in the middle of reading Ken Follett's Pillars of the Earth when I was pregnant with my first daughter and developed horrible morning sickness. I was so acutely aware of my nausea while I was reading that book that eventually I just had to give up. I never finished the book and to this day I can't look at it without feeling ill.
That's beyone bizarre
