Sometimes I read books that to me seem a bit outside the norm. I don't know how to best describe it of course two different authors are different from each other and different books have different plots and all. But still there is something nebular I consider the norm, which of course is influenced by what I read normally. I guess I will just hope people will intuit my meaning. Anyway while different isn't necessarily good I still enjoy the added variety so I decided to make a thread about that.
I guess I should begin, I will just add a few I remember atm.
The Chronicles of Master Li and Number Ten Ox (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/92581.The_Chronicles_of_Master_Li_and_Number_Ten_O x) by Barry Hughart qualifies I suppose because I have trouble finding anything quite like it. Also it is good so I can recommend it.
Then hmm. The rather obscure indie author L. Eschedor (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/16025549.L_Eschedor) I don't even know how I found them (strongly suspect it is a he), I read Ten Days of Embarrassing Changes first and then 100 point heroes I think. The book have something well anime but it feels like they actually put thought into it, which I miss in many LN or manga. Also pretty sure some of the recurring stuff in their books are their fetishes which are part of why I won't recommend this author (though they don't bother me) but are probably part of why I consider the books a bit different.
Hmm I think P.S. Powers (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/5768233.P_S_Power) also qualified though I can't remember why or which book so I probably should just delete this passage.
Well I will think some more about books that qualify, I am bad at remembering such things on demand.
