Top Ten Most Unique Books We've Read


For future Top Ten Tuesday topics and info on how to participate, click here!

This week we're sharing some of the most unique books we've ever read! And it'll jue be five since we weren't super on top of things this week! Whoops!

Lauren's Picks

The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
This little gem was a fairy tale, a mystery, and a fantasy novel all rolled together. It was cute and made me so curious, I just flew through this book! 

The Devil Crept In by Ania Ahlborn
I know I always fangirl over all of Ahlborn's books, but this one stood out from the rest for me. It still embodied everything creepy and tragic, but it intrigued me more than I expected. This is a must read for any horror fan!

Kimberly's Picks

Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley 
I was warned going into this that it was "weird". But was also told it was for fans of Neil Gaiman, which instantly drew my attention. This book is so fun and so intriguing. The world building is fantastic. I loved every minute of it!

Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman
I love all of his books!! He's one of my favorite authors, and honestly, any of his books could go on this list. Neverwhere was my first by him and holds a place in my heart for that reason.

Jana's Pick

Stolen by Lucy Christopher
It's written like a letter and I got Stockholm Syndrome. What the crap?


What are some of the most unique books you've ever read?

  1. @Jana: you're not the only one feeling that way. Stolen turns right from wrong and leaves you feeling guilty(?) for wanting the wrong ending.

  6. The most unique book I've ever read is House Of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. It is a seriously crazy read.

    And I love Neil Gaiman—excellent choice!

  7. I've started drafting a list of the most unique books and The Ocean at the end of the lane was on my list as well. Great book! And unique yes. I ended up doing a Most Unique characters post: http://marelithalkink.blogspot.co.za/2017/04/top-ten-most-unique-characters.html

  10. I loved The Ocean at the end of the Lane too! It was a quick read for me as I was so absorbed by it.

    I've been away from my computer so I missed doing this prompt, but have found a lot of great books from traveling around checking out everyone's posts. 😀
