House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski
1.0
As soon as the book started to go anywhere, I was taken on a way-too-long rant by the character Johnny (I think that was his name, I really don’t remember and don’t wanna go check) that almost always involved some highly detailed sex scene. Like I get it, he has a lot of sex. Why do I need all the details and why is it not even good?? I was so excited to read this but it almost felt like a chore. I thought all the text placement was so original and how there were 2 or 3 stories going on at once was interesting, but in the end it was too much and also not enough at the same time. I read halfway and had to DNF. If you enjoy a story that doesn’t really go anywhere but some things are kinda interesting and we also have a character who’s described like he looks and smells homeless but somehow has sex with every woman he meets, along with the constant ramblings to read, this is for you!
