Name-calling and insults you might hear on the playground and beyond...

Weird and Unhinged Women 2.0
All sorts of stories about all sorts of women and girls.
This is a genre-agnostic mega-list of weird girl* fiction expanding on an original list by @yarnandbooks (no longer being updated). You can view the original list here: (link) /// As a nonbinary person, I take as broad a view as possible of the "girl" in "weird girl*", hence the asterisk.
Wide open for recommendations!
Books in The Offset (collection from BOTM)
This collection is THE reason I haven’t cancelled BOTM; these books are criminally underrated & deserve more attention! Litfic lovers, these are for you.
The Offset is a collection from Book of the Month (BOTM) featuring “a series of books from indie and international voices for those who seek artistic expression over commercial appeal, elevated prose over action-packed plots, or the unconventional over the mainstream.”
Will be updated routinely.

Novels with Unique Narrative Voice
A collection of stories that utilize narrative voice in a Particular Way. Often quirky, sometimes funny, and usually impactful to the plot or nature of the novel. Not limited to any particular POV so long as the narrative is distinct. Goes hand-in-hand with an unreliable narrator but not mutually exclusive to one.
This is a very subjective list, but I loooove this vibe in a novel. Recommendations welcome!
