House of Leaves | Mark Z Danielewski
post image

I'm calling it... Bailing on House of Leaves. At least for now, probably for good but never say never I guess. I read the intro and 2 chapters and it's good but I can already tell it's not the book for me right now. Horror is just not where my brain is at right now.

That knocks off another past #bookspin, and I'm still counting it for #offmyshelf (for on tbr longer than 5 years) since it's off my tbr.

This one was so much better than the first book!

First off, I have to preface this review by saying I have seen the second season of the show, so I did know a lot of the plot points going into the book and obviously wasn‘t surprised by some of the things that happened.

This book was much more emotional than the first.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A #BOTMBacklog (2018) for my June #bookspin. Tackle that #TBR

I enjoy Sager‘s novels - quick reads to keep me guessing.

Honestly, I don‘t quite know how to feel about this book which is why I gave it 3 stars.

This book started off so slow. It took me a while to get into it. It just felt like the story was meandering and that made it boring.

By the second half it got more exciting and it low key got a little horny, which I typically don‘t mind but in this case it felt random.

Prairiegirl_reading I was hate reading by the end. Lots of people love it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5d
oddandbookish @Prairiegirl_reading I didn‘t hate it but I definitely didn‘t love it either. It got such great reviews and I was expecting more from it. 5d

I loved this one! It felt different than the others in the series since you got more of the bad guys perspective. anyway Kinsey always makes me crave Quarter Pounders! #BookSpin @TheAromaofBooks

June so far. Slower than May, but I managed a #bookspin book (Little Lies) and the next in the series for #EBBR.

I‘m so behind on a lot of buddy reads and Litsy happenings.
