Actual in the mail, too: supposedly House of Leaves is one of those books whose fans insist that it be read in dead-tree form. Supposedly it’s one of those books that will completely blow your mind, man. …Look, I’m not saying that it won’t, sure. I’m sure there are books out there that can. It’s just that I’ve never read one that came even close to duplicating the mind-altering effects of three margaritas in two hours.
So, yeah, kid of jaundiced about these claims.

I’ve got a first edition of this, bought and read upon release back in the 90s. It….works, for a while; and yes the physical media is integral to the experience, but the commitment to the bit goes to far, and the book is about a third to long IMHO.
Let us know how it goes.
