By Denis Krotovas: "We all have different tastes when it comes to many things – from food to music, art, and books. The reasons behind it can be complicated, but we're not here to discuss them. Instead, we're here to appreciate how these differences make our world diverse, interesting, and a little odd. To celebrate said oddness, today we're also serving you a full list of weird books. Well, at least according to netizens in various online threads. Whether these books are strange due to their storylines, structures, characters, or whatever else – they are perfectly tip-toeing the line between being too bizarre to enjoy and being very captivating. So, let's take a look at what's on the list and maybe we'll find our next must-read!"
