Get your bookmarkin' fingers ready, because this site is a keeper. Abebooks just launched its Weird Books Room, "a celebration of everything that's bizarre, odd and downright weird in books." The current Weird Book of the Week is A la Cart: The Secret Lives of Grocery Shoppers by Hilary Carlip. So yeah, weird.They maintain a collection called Weird and Wonderful, the books of which will by turns bewilder, horrify and tickle you. I've posted my favorites after the jump.
