HOUSE OF LEAVES II

When it comes to reading a variety of genres I can be very selfish. " House of Leaves" put me in a tight situation of giving up literature. Reading footnotes and turning the pages upside down has turned my body into a maze like the characters in the book. I found it quite interesting the way characters express their horrific outcomes by one phrase on the paper, leaving the rest blank. I wonder if this book has a connection with " The Most Curious Thing" and " Pillow man". Jimmy tried to warn himself that he should of listened to Zampano, if this book is so horrific and tourist like Zampano and Jimmy says, what happened to the reader? why didn't I freak out?
