This site is born out of a fascination with the absurd and the novel. I personally invite you to come along with me on this journey as I seek to find joy and amusement in all the strange and wonderful books purchased from my local thrift stores. Will I find diamonds in the rough that will grant me happiness, fulfillment, and wealth? What wonders await me in the donation pile, just waiting to be discovered? Judging from my past trips, probably a lot of self-help books, fad diets, religious drivel, and esoteric nonsense.
