Scanner Darkly is pretty much when PKD was losing his fucking mind due to all the drugs he took in the past. I recommend you get collections of his short stories with stuff like Minority Report, The Second Variety, and The Short and Happy Life of the Brown Oxford. A lot of good humor and twists. There is also the novella that Blade Runner was based on called Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. PKD is a good writer, but I don't know if everyone will get into him. Even as a fan I kinda wonder about some of the things he keeps injecting into his stories like News Clowns.
