House of Leaves

Terrifying and mind-blowing. Fascinating characters keep increasingly absurd situations somehow completely relatable. On one level it's simply a story about a family and an architecturally “unique” house but on another level it's an insane mind game. I think I have like 15 pages of notes just trying to piece everything together. And even if it's impossible to tie every string together and catch every unspoken story and find every underlying connection, the surface story is fascinating enough on it's own. It isn't really a book you read so much as participate in.
