Buenas noches. The other year you stopped eating meat because you said violence wasn't necessary for survival. The other day you asked to be choked during sex because you needed to feel loved more severely.  The other day you ignored the news because it was "too much for you." If you are safe can you even feel alive? In the end, What do we all deserve?

I’ve realized in the past two years that I will never feel as passionately about any other media as I do about weird little books with fucked up guys in them. So here are some weird little books I’ve read recently that I greatly enjoyed and think you should read if you like weird little books too:
Ghost Music by An Yu
Dreaming of You by Melissa Lozado-Olivia
Open Throat by Henry Hoke
Y/N by Esther Yi
The Employees by Olga Havn (trans. Martin Aitken)
Ring Shout by P. Djéli Clark
there isn’t really a recurring theme here other than being strange and/or unsettling and under 250 pages. and loved by me. also PLEASE share any weird little books of your own that you have read and loved, there are never enough weird books recs in the world!!!!!!!!

I dream of a surgeon, scooping [my jealousy] out and stitching me back up, combing my hair perfect over the scar, and my new smiling self emerging, how she feels so warm when she hears her lover’s name in another girl’s mouth.

A girl is told that in order to be loved properly, she must make a habit out of service.
