Reading this book is an experience in itself and the true definition of "it's all about the journey, not the destination". The whole point of this book is not only to let you know about this weird house on Ash Tree Lane, but also to make you question the story, the meaning, the hidden clues...
House of Leaves may not be for everyone or may not change the life of every reader that comes by it like some fans say it does, but no one can deny it is one of the most ambitious and carefully crafted work that exists in book form.
