Amazing book! You should believe every positive review about it, but going in blind is probably best. I'm surprised by how much this reads like a modern myth. It echoes mythology and platonic philosophy, an archetypically savvy book.

One of the most unique books i’ve ever seen. I enjoyed its structure as a journal style book as Piranesi uncovers the truth about The House. I did find it very predictable but the way it’s written made it enjoyable so I wanted to continue. I really enjoyed all the mythology references with the Labyrinth itself and the statues.

if i could give this 6 stars i would. hands down my favorite book of the year so far ! “invested” cannot even begin to comprehend what i felt during the time i was reading it. this is one of those books that leaves you with a core memory of reading it the first time.
i loved the piranesi’s character so much, his attitude towards those circumstances really reflects his perception of the house. as said by piranesi himself: “The Beauty of the House is immeasurable; its Kindness infinite.” i hope everyone’s houses are the same
