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?

    Not sure if this sub is a fiction only place, but Happy Like Murders kinda messed me up for a bit. Extremely well written True Crime account of Fred and Rosemary West.

    For fiction, I’m a big postmodern lover, but Even Cowgirls get the Blues was “crazy” in a wacky sense. I read a good amount of Tom Robbins it in my teens/twenties, and it was very formative in shaping my taste, I think.
