This list is not a commentary on these books---the focus is purely on the titles!

Books written in unconventional and experimental styles and formatting.

in which digital spaces and new technologies are used to access strange/surreal/absurd/dreamlike planes of being, raising questions around what it means to exist [in a human body] in our technological age. these books play with style and form in testing and questioning the limits of our humanity.

We do not dream of labour but labour sure does dream of smothering and exploiting us in new and unusual ways.

aka the severance vibes are strong here

Unhinged and chaotic queer stories that are beyond entertaining (and in some ways, very disturbing as the best are haha!)

A collection of mixed media and epistolary/immersive books

books that have been selected for the Welcome to Night Vale patreon book club!

fiction about capitalism, surveillance, and how the jobs we work to survive impact our sense of self

Books that make you feel things. Or want to feel things. Or unsure of what you're feeling. Things get weird, you're unsettled and on the edge of your seat, and you can feel your brain physically rewiring itself while you're left questioning "WTF did I just read, and what do I do now?" The answer, of course, is to touch grass and read the next book on the list.

Books that ignore the traditional way of telling a story. These books tell their stories in unexpected ways, through letters, transcripts, diaries, documents, text messages, or unconventional layouts.

Do you enjoy reading about bad bosses and horrible workplaces? Are you anxiously awaiting the next season of Severance? Do you feel a delightful rush of goosebumps at the mention of workplace horror, technothrillers, technocratic dystopia, and tales of dysfunctional late-stage capitalism run amok? This may be the list for you!

These are books about dms/emails or books told largely in dm/email/letter format. Recommendations welcomed.
