House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

dark emotional mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.75

this is either the most pretentious,  ostentatious book i've ever read or the deepest horror story i've ever encountered, but the academic metafiction really sold it for me.
