Which books are told in the most interesting / creative/ mind bending ways? How does it add to the book overall?
My all time favourite is Ella Minnow Pea where the book is a series of letters. The characters have to think of more inventive ways to write their letters as an increasing number of letters are outlawed as the book progresses.
Honourable mentions include:
Maribou Stork Nightmares where the narrator is trying to suppress his dark past by allowing himself to slip into hallucinations of a whacky south African safari adventure.
Flowers for Algernon where the narrator becomes more articulate by taking part in a scientific experiment.
In the manga series Gantz by Hiroya Oku, the author inserts discussions by people on chat message boards about the protagonists. Often these message boards deride or dismiss the protagonist’s actions which become growingly known worldwide. This further projects his feelings of isolation and foreshadow his character growth while also acting as a social commentary on modern culture.
