Odd Books

December 10th, 2009

I would really like to look at and maybe read some of these books from the Weird Book Room at AbeBooks; some I don’t even want to be in the same room with, and some are not all that weird, just related to specific interests that relatively few people are into.

A few of my favorite titles:


The English: Are They Human?
Mrs. Byrne’s Dictionary of Unusual, Obscure and Preposterous Words
(I want!)
Teleportation: A How To Guide
The Cat Whisperer
(I need that.)
The Thermodynamics of Pizza
Stray Shopping Carts of North America
Monk Habits for Everyday People

Thanks, Bifurcated Rivets

    For what it’s worth, I actually own a copy of that Mrs. Byrne’s Dictionary of Unusual, Obscure and Preposterous Words in paperback. I don’t know why…
