Trying to decide what to read next. Has anyone read House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski? Any thoughts?

Read it! But take your time with it.
My son loved it. I personally couldn’t get into it.
It’s big and a challenge but it made me fear my own hall, which is quite an achievement.
@Matt…… lol…… the part about “or maybe ‘a recently empty’ hallway” is the part that stays with me!
I’m normally a very fast reader. I’ve been working on this book since Halloween. I had to put it down for a while to read other books because it’s such a challenge. I’m enjoying it, it’s just frustrating.
Honestly, I really disliked it.
It’s weird and a bit challenging, but overall I did enjoy it.
I have heard wonderful things about it, but gave up on it after about 60 pages. Hope to try it again someday, but a real challenge!
I have it & it’s been staring at me for awhile now. I am determined to read it this year
I’ve tried several times to read it and absolutely just can’t get into it.
It’s in my pile for February. Reading Death of a Salesman right now. It is short and a play. Checks off one thing in my Popsugar challenge.
Sadly, I couldn’t get into it either time I tried. 🙁
Certainly not on anyone’s light reading list. It’s a weird, difficult read. Take your time with it.
