Sure. 'The Library at Mount Char' by Scott Hawkins. It has a really out - there concept with a library that contains all knowledge and the strange, powerful librarians. 'The Night Circus' by Erin Morgenstern is also quite odd. The circus that appears only at night, with its magical tents and performers, creates a very dreamy and weird atmosphere. Another one is 'City of Saints and Madmen' by Jeff VanderMeer. It's a collection of stories set in a very strange and surreal city.
I'd recommend 'The Etched City' by K. J. Bishop. It has a unique blend of steampunk and fantasy elements in a very strange and desolate world. 'The King in Yellow' by Robert W. Chambers has a very creepy and weird undertone, especially with the eponymous play that drives people mad. 'Tigana' by Guy Gavriel Kay can also be considered a bit weird. It has a world where a country has been magically erased from memory, and the characters' struggle to bring it back is full of strange magic and politics.
For a beginner, 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' is a great start. It's really weird but also very funny. You get to follow Arthur Dent as he travels through the galaxy in the most unexpected ways. Another good one is 'Annihilation'. It's not too complex in terms of writing style but has a really strange and mysterious setting that will draw you in. 'The Giver' by Lois Lowry also has some elements of a strange, dystopian world that is different from our own, which can be an easy introduction to the weirdness of scifi and fantasy.
Sure. 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' by Douglas Adams is quite weird. It has absurd situations like the Earth being a computer built by mice, and the idea of the Infinite Improbability Drive. It's full of wacky characters and crazy adventures across the galaxy.
Sure. 'The Woman in Black' by Susan Hill is a great start. It has a simple yet spooky story about a haunted house and a vengeful ghost. It's not overly complex but still manages to be really creepy. Another good one is 'Pet Sematary' by Stephen King. The idea of a place where dead things come back to life, but not in a normal way, is really weird. It's a classic King story with his signature style of horror.
One of the weirdest is 'House of Leaves' by Mark Z. Danielewski. It has a very unique structure, with text arranged in different ways on the page that adds to the overall sense of unease and mystery. Another is 'The Raw Shark Texts' by Steven Hall. It features a really strange concept of a 'conceptual shark' that hunts in the realm of human memory and ideas. And 'Finnegans Wake' by James Joyce also falls into this category. It's written in a highly experimental and complex language that makes it a very strange and hard - to - understand fantasy - like work.
Another one is 'Good Omens'. While it's not a typical romance novel, the relationship between Aziraphale and Crowley is both funny and a bit weird. They are an angel and a demon respectively, but they form a bond over the centuries. Their bickering and the situations they get into, like trying to prevent the apocalypse together while also dealing with their own feelings for each other, make it a very interesting read in terms of an unusual 'romance'.
One of the really weird scifi and fantasy novels is 'House of Leaves' by Mark Z. Danielewski. It has a very strange structure with footnotes that seem to go on forever and create a sort of maze for the reader. Another is 'Finnegans Wake' by James Joyce. It's a complex blend of languages and dream - like sequences that make it a very strange read in the fantasy realm. And 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' by Douglas Adams is also quite weird with its absurd humor and out - of - this - world concepts.
I'd recommend 'Steins; Gate' for newbies. Although its time - travel concept can be a bit hard to grasp at first, it's presented in an interesting anime - style way that can draw you in. The characters are unique and the overall story is full of twists and turns that are both weird and exciting. Also, 'Katawa Shoujo' can be a choice. It offers a different perspective with its disabled characters in an anime - like world, which is a bit strange but also thought - provoking for those new to anime visual novels.
There's also 'Stardust' which is set in a fantasy world that lies beyond a wall in an English village. The protagonist's journey to find a fallen star and the unexpected romance that blossoms during this adventure is really quite strange and wonderful. The setting adds a whole new level of weirdness to the romance.
The top 10 weirdest novels are quite diverse. 'The Sound and the Fury' by William Faulkner is known for its non - linear narrative and multiple perspectives that can be confusing at first. 'Naked Lunch' by William S. Burroughs is full of grotesque and surreal imagery. 'Blood Meridian' by Cormac McCarthy has a brutally violent and strange world filled with enigmatic characters. Each of these novels challenges the reader's expectations in different ways.
In the story of Jonah. Jonah was swallowed by a large fish (or whale). It's really strange that a man could survive inside a sea creature for days. It goes against what we know about the digestive systems of such animals and the ability of a human to endure such an environment.
