Follow This Thread: A Maze Book to Get Lost In by Henry Eliot
3.0
Follow This Thread by Henry Eliot will teach you so much you never knew you didn’t know about mazes. It blends mythology, history, psychology, and pop culture into an incredibly unique read. It is wonderfully offbeat.
I love that it plays with formatting, turning the book into a maze itself. It created a rich reading experience.
My main critique is that the narrative is just as disjointed as the physical text. It bounces around with choppy flow, but perhaps this is an intentional parallel to how mazes turn you around and have dead ends. For me, it took too much away from the flow and sometimes affected comprehension.
I would recommend this for anyone with an interest in mazes or enjoys fun formatting in books.
