My House of Leaves journey ☠️I tried oh how I tried

I am officially done with House of Leaves. Time to share!

Here is my honest experience of reading House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. I got as far as I could without tearing out my eyes and have an (almost) emotionless guide to approaching this book if you want to try it, and my spoiler-free thoughts on the good and bad parts as I found them.

This is not a plot breakdown or puzzle-solving guide. Instead, it’s a real reader’s perspective on the reading experience, who might enjoy it (and who absolutely won’t), and whether or not I think it's worth the effort

📚 Did House of Leaves change your life… or did it nearly end it? Let me know your honest experience in the comments.
