I can't rememebr the last time a book gripped me like this one. I finished it in a day. There are similarities to books like House of Leaves (Mark Z. Danielewski) or The Cypher (Kathe Koje) but I was most reminded of a web serial I read years ago and can no longer find that I think was called Hotel Flamingo? Anyway, this book is really good.
The concept isn't particularly novel (though it's certainly not worn out its welcome) but the characters and the way it plays out are great.
