A Million Little Pieces and My Friend Leonard are both fiction, although the first is an excellent book
I'm amazed by the number of these books that I have read. I went through a memoir phase, and clearly leaded toward strange and twisted ones.
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold and She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb are both fiction
So like. Thank you list maker. I love what I call "extreme memoir," which seems two be what you call "strange and twisted." This gives me so reasons to push the "to read" button.
White Oleander by Janet Fitch is a novel, not a memoir.
Removed "Into the Wild" #38. It is a biography - not a memoir. Also removed White Oleander #89 because it's fiction.
Someone changed the title of the list, so I reverted it back to the original.
Does anyone know best and strangest nonfiction books in general? Not just memoirsHow would I search for that?
I'm new to this whole searching function (after all these years! lol)
