indie lit for christmas

here are some new or recent indie lit books i would buy if i could:

Nick Antosca's Midnight Picnic

Blake Butler's Ever

Matt Bell's How the Broken Lead the Blind

Sam Pink's Yum Yum I Can't Wait to Die

Kim Chinquee's Oh, Baby

i'll post the links to these things later. i have things to do. i have to prepare for christmas. i have to do this because i have make it match or be better than thanksgiving week, in which i: got a speeding ticket, started a grease fire in the kitchen, bought a ping-pong table, ran over a median at three in the morning, played Fifa '98 for nintendo 64, ate at a twenty-dollar buffett, in which everyone wore suits and my girlfriend and i wore diapers, and my german shepherd, Rexus, developed the ability to communicate with me using his eyebrows. yes, german shepherds have eyebrows.

buy one of these books, supporting indie lit, which supports reading in general (but better, more sophisticated, avante-garde reading), which will (more-so than a mainstream book or a book over two-hundred pages) make you a better, more giving, compassionate, and possibly, spiritual human being. that's what happened to me anyway when i started reading these people.
