Final question: Why do you think that the cat and dog were able to find their way out of the maze but the humans that have entered it have gotten utterly lost? What does this say about the house? What does this say about the animals themselves?

What were your thoughts on the two rants that we encountered in this portion of the book? The echo rant and the maze rant. What do these portions add to both of the stories going on? What do they take away from them?

What are your thoughts on Johnny Truant and his story going on in the footnotes? What are your impressions of him? How does he add to or take away from the story of Navidson and his family?

Do you think at this stage in the book we are indeed dealing with a haunted house? Or perhaps something else entirely? Thoughts?

What did you think about reading the Introduction to this book? How did it make you feel reading it? What kind of tone does it set for the rest of the book?

Sungirl79 The introduction gave me a kinda freaked out, creepy feeling. 5y

And so the nightmare begins in chapter 9 of this book! (House of Leaves) The pages and text become distorted with some of the texts written sideways, some of it written upside down, some of that bearing lists that have absolutely no meaning or relevance... The text box on the left page is written in mirror image. Meaning that you have to have a mirror in order to read it!
How is everybody else doing with this read? 😵🤪

RainyDayReading My boyfriend wants me to buddy read this book with him. I‘m not sure I‘m ready 🤣🙈 5y
BeansPage @RainyDayReading my motto is "I fear no book!" I dove into this book headfirst and though it is absolutely bizarre and most of it doesn't make any bit of sense, I am somewhat enjoying the study aspect of the book as it reads very much like a textbook.... on acid that is! ??? 5y
RainyDayReading @SumisBooks Hahaha a textbook on acid, I‘m going to use that to describe it from now on 🤣 5y

Freespirit This has been on my TBR list for ages. It looks daunting!! 5y
BeansPage @Freespirit I'm not going to lie, it is a monster of a book to begin with and the fact that the text is so strange in places makes it even worse to read but like I said I'm actually kind of enjoying myself reading this book which is odd because I didn't the first time that I read it through. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5y
Freespirit Thanks I shall keep it on the list 5y
Crazeedi This is a very interesting concept 5y
megnews How unique! 5y
Sungirl79 I‘ve have been reading slowly. I‘ve been having a hard time focusing on reading. Ugh!!😢 5y

Repost for @SumisBooks :

Okay so I'm posting this one more time because I forgot the chapter breakdowns for those who may be following along with a digital copy or with a copy that is different than the one pictured here. This book is really funky but here is how I have it broken down...
Feb: Ch. I - X
Mar: Ch. XI - XX
Apr: Ch. XXI - to Index

#HOLBuddyRead
