I'm gonna put this real simply. I have this extremely specific kind of media which I like which is hard to specify exactly, and I have been heavily hungering for more works like this, espescially in literature. First I will list examples of this "style" and then some elements of the style.
I want a book that FEELS A BIT LIKE:
Disco Eyeslium
Regular Show
Courage The Cowardly Dog
Night In The Woods
Season 1 of Breaking Bad
Me, Earl And The Dying Girl
The Leftovers
Early adult swim/MTV animated shows
King Of The Hill
Daria
ELEMENTS OF THE STYLE:
Working class, weak, average characters. People just like you and me.
Very realistic and humorous dialog.
A sense of mundanity to everything, often contrasted with the surreal or absurd.
Eccentric poor people.
Extremely boring situations made really werid somehow.
A lack of direction. People just kind of mill around, try and deal with their problems, or wander aimlessly.
Problems can either be very small, mundane and social, or world ending. Think KOTH vs Regular Show.
A sense of working class enviroments, grungy ghettos, and a bit of lonliness.
Themes of youths wandering around, breaking stuff, being young, aimless and free.
IN CONCLUSION:
I want books of this style. Doesn't matter how easy or hard, how short or long, how old or new. I want RECCOMENDATIONS!
