New Weird Books Sidebar

Eagle-eyed WU-vies will have spotted the new sidebar, installed by Alex this weekend, where we will recommend books of sufficient weirdness, we hope, to deserve your attention.

The reason for picking most of the titles should be obvious, at least upon visiting their page. But if we want to expand on our reason for selecting a book, we'll do a separate post on the main blog.

We hope this new feature brings you lots of pleasant--and weird--reading!

PS: if you want to bring something worthy of dissemination to our notice, please do so!

Will that book go bonkers and bite me if I don't say the right words to neutralize it?

Have you checked out Tim Dorsey's series of books about Serge Storms, a serial killer who only kills people who hurt other people and has an obsession with Florida history and trivia? They are hilarious!
