For true stories that are so ridiculous, that you could have sworn it was an !theonion worthy story.

Sadly I've never gotten around to reading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy however what I have heard is good.

I'm a big fan of the satire in 40k which has novels spanning several genres, so there's almost always a fresh type of novel to dig into, even if they are the equivalent of cheap romance novels but for nerds

I highly suggest you give hitchhiker's guide the time. Not sure if you've read any Terry Pratchett, but IMO Douglas Adams is on another level (and Pratchett is pretty good himself). I ended up reading all his books in like two sittings once I started.

If you haven't heard the original radio drama, i highly recommend. I actually prefer it to the books now. It's on archive.org.
