Two that I just finished and loved were:
Feeling Very Strange - an anthology of a pseudo-genre called "slipstream", edited by James Patrick Kelly and John Kessel.
Short stories with varying elements of science fiction, fantasy, and horror. A really good read.
Another Roadside Attraction - by Tom Robbins.
Super trippy, as Tom Robbins does. I found my own vocabulary to be much increased in periods just after reading, because of Robbins' excessive and obsessive variety. Also I thoroughly fell in love with Amanda, which is unequivocally what the story is about.
