House of Leaves really had me stuck within the confusing labyrinth. I'm still lost in it, by the way. I'm not really sure if I actually finished it because it has countless layers of storytelling. Some interesting parts and some a slog to read through.
Favorite part of course is when the book focuses on the mysterious hallway. Kinda skimmed the parts which are dense and full of rambling.
