your dad shouldnt of been such a tight-ass, people make thousand's of mistakes like that everyday

It took me three reads to figure out "House of Leaves" is utter bullshit.
Given a bit of work, The Navidson Record on its own could've been a decent book, but the Truant side really, REALLY lets down the overall text for me. Everytime I'm reading a part of the Truant narrative, I can't help thinking 'Someone wishes they were Bret Easton Ellis...'

Also, don't know if it's the same in all editions, but the last 150 or so pages... what the fuck is the point there? It adds very little, but somehow wills the reader to try and gleam some sort of sense from it. How many people actually unravelled the encoded letter? I guess most people just skim over it, but if you do you're almost certain to think 'wtf was the point of that?' I get that this was his intention, but "The Navidson Record" alone provides enough jabs at literary criticism; there's no need to further bash the reader over the head with it.

But anyway, despite the tone of this post, I didn't particularly hate the book. It does have its plus points and I can kind of understand its appeal, but the whole thing just feels a bit too overblown for my tastes.

Are there any good erotica audio books out there? I can't seem to find any.
