House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

challenging dark emotional funny mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

This may be the oddest book I have ever read.  I can’t really even coalesce my thoughts right now in the monuments since finishing it.  At the base it is a haunted house tale, and yet that is not all.  It has left me with a feeling of…unease.   I shall be keeping this book to revisit in the future.   At least for now.
