This book was beautiful. I went into it completely blind, and I am so happy I did so. I am so satisfied with the ending and I can definitely see myself reading this again. I loved Piranesi’s spirit and I love learning about the house. Everything he wrote in his journals about the house was so beautiful. I did not realize it would be journal entries, but I liked it that way and I loved the way that the book is written. I also like how they were still conversations and it’s not just basic journal entries. I loved the mystery part of it too and the plot twists. I recommend that everyone goes into this book completely blind.
