So...

I have a hard time thinking of House of Leaves as horror. Yeah, it has certain aspects of the horror genre, but mostly it's just one of those things that's creepy due to its incessant weirdness.

I usually avoid most contemporary literature, but House of Leaves totally absorbed one of my best friends' lives and she demanded that I read her copy of it. The singer Poe made a cd that kind of goes along with it, although it's also largely devoted to her late father. It just makes it interesting to listen to the cd having read the book, and vice-versa.
