Strangely Pleasing

Wow! What a strange little book! The title intrigued me, so I gave it a try. I didn't enjoy it much at the beginning due the disjointed and somewhat nonsensical story telling style. But as the telling went on, the patterns emerged giving it a feeling of completeness. I noticed that the Kirkus Review called the story "surreal" and that is a very good word for it. If you want something different and a little strange, you might like this book.
