Weird, funny and off-beat books.
With the advent of book superstore Amazon.com it is now easier than ever to find that rare book, share your own reviews, or learn about an interesting new subject. Conversely, self publishing has decreased barrier to entry, and publshing your voice is now a reality for many. The only problem - silly, bizarre, or just plain awful books that you would have never expected to be published. Here are some books that would probably have never made to the shelves of your local bookstore.
(This lens is rated R due to potentially offensive book titles and mature subject matter.)
