Never Before Seen

Overview

100 different books, 100 different things you've never before read about.

There are no other rules: books can be non-fiction or fiction, poetry or prose, 100 000 words or none at all, in any mode, for any age, and in whatever company you wish. The only thing they must have is a topic (or even a trope or theme) you're unfamiliar with. So, be it the daily life of dirt, competitive underwater ironing, or the latest concoction of the one and only Chuck Tingle, be brave! Be inquisitive! And most of all, be ready to learn something new, and maybe even weird!
