Hey guys! I'm looking for new books and i just love books with a unique format. Can be plot, writing style or even cover. My most unique reads were battle royale and horrostor. What are yours? Edit: just remember invisible monsters by Chuck Palanhiuk! Another unique book.

Lockpick Pornography by Joey Comeau. I'd never read a book from the POV of a genderqueer character before.

Wow what a throwback. Haven’t thought about Joey (or QC) in a long time. But scenes from that book stick in my brain decades later. One of my first real exposures to really different genderqueer experiences
