House of Leaves

Has anyone ever read it? I'm only about 75 pages in and it's quite the interesting read. I hear that the more you read it the more it really gets inside your head.

Bravo for getting through chapter 4 or 5 (spacial recognition bullshit)

Read it a few years ago, still one of my favorite books. You'll start hating Johnny Truant because he's an idiot with terrible run-on sentences essentially, but zampano's story is absolutely astonishing. Wait until you get to upper 400s - lower 500s and you'll shit your pants with wtf the books doing.

This is probably my favorite single book of all time js

except that truant's segments really sucked, he just bones a ton of random girls and flips out occasionally.

I've been wanting to read it for some time just haven't gotten around to it

The Navidson Record on its own would have been a great book. The rest of it was garbage.

Also, get your crappy art out of my book. If I wanted art while I was reading, I'd read a book on art. Flipping a page around 50 times to read the text you've put in a big-ass spiral all the way around the page just makes me want to not read the book.
