Rec'd on 📚 What Are some of the best books you‘Ve read this year (that made you think)? fiction, Non-Fiction, Poetry?

It’s not a revolutionary recommendation but A) her writing is so clever and expansive/mapping the connections between characters is very enjoyable and B) the “future” chapters she wrote in 2011 are weirdly resonant and freaky in the same way that the Simpsons predictions can be.

Looking for some weird book RECOMMENDations

You know, the kind of books you stare at a wall after finishing, like, “what did I just read?” Books that are trippy or odd or dark or just weird. Books that you don’t totally know how to explain, but stick in your head for a long time afterwards. If you have any recommendations like that, let me know please!!
