I seldom get creeped out by things but there was something about House of Leaves that legitimately got under my skin.

I do understand how some people feel like it’s Foster Wallace levels of self indulgence, but I like that he did something a little weird. Like Maerman mentioned, the full color is great.

I’ve been slowly going through the Familiar, but I worry that it’s too ambitious a project.

Thank you for reminding me that's on my shelf, I think it's about time for another read through. It's been enough years that I don't remember details but I remember enjoying it!

It's great, right? Did you manage to read the full colour edition?

Really cool unique book. Certainly is going to depend on your tastes a little bit but I loved it. Also before reading I had someone kind enough to urge me, do not get the ebook! This is one book that just has to be the physical edition.

“Self-contained ARG” is a great way to describe it, thank you for giving me that. I tried it twice and bounced off of it, but on the third try I finally understood what it was trying to do and devoured it, and now one of my “show off” books is an autographed hardcover copy. Great book.
