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.

Steppenwolf is a book I find myself returning to every 5 years or so. It’s an interesting book to read as you get older.

Comet in Moominland was the first book I felt that weird feeling for. Absolutely. I still have my copy from the 90s, though the cover is ripped off.
