House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

4.0

I really enjoyed this book, although at times it did drag along. This book is one I'll have to re-read because you can decode a lot if you paid close enough attention. I did leave this book feeling very confused and it didn't have such psychological affects on me as it did my friend.

I liked Truant's point of view but again, I am very confused about the ending of his section. My favorite points though were the house explorations (obviously) and how it affected the people inside of it.

I only gave it 4 stars because although I enjoyed it I just didn't enjoy it as much as I expected to. My friend talked it up a lot and it just didn't quite live up. Also, it was slow at points and found myself skimming. And lastly, I left this book very confused and kind of wish it ended more bluntly with everything laid out clear.
