Strange Saturday Stuff

Ok, it is that time for the strange, or not so strange, stuff which we offer here on Saturday's! First we have a wonderful, delightful, entertaining, thought provoking, and moving book to offer you. And what, you ask, makes such a literary delight strange? Well, the answer is probably, not much, except for the fact that this book is easily one of the best scifi stories I have ever read. Oh, and it is easily one of the best fantasy stories I have ever read. Oh and it is easily one of the best Horror stories I have ever read. Not kidding. So read this gem which is strangely hard to classify as to genre or type, but whichever you decide it is, it is truly and inspired and fun book to read!

And now, the allegedly not so strange magazine selections for the week. This week we visit the nineteen teen's, a time when America was just beginning to awaken to it's industrial might and it's progressive acceptance of technology.

First a new industry that is rapidly gaining popularity and awareness throughout the American populace, this magazine let the curious and adoring public get a look at this fascinating world.

Our final selection this week is a magazine that aimed at the modern American housewife, and featured stories and fiction that was of interest to them.
