Just finished House of leaves, great book but really uncomventional

I've got that sitting on my shelf! Have been only able to do audiobooks for a few weeks and know that's one you want to read read. Glad to see another endorsement.

Highly recommend, I think audio books get a bit of grief, but it's a really convenient way to engage with text you may not have before.

House of Leaves has several concurrent narratives tracking through it and it's a novel that benefits from a physical edition because you can tease the threads in the order you like.

Oh I've got no shame in audio books. I have a lot of drive time depending on where work takes me, and it's been amazing. Still love turning the trees over, but I don't want that to stop me from all the good stuff out there. But I just know house of leaves does some cool stuff physically.
