Darcie Newland | 2 comments I saw a post on tumblr about this book that gets harder and harder to read as you go on, not like the complexity of the book, but how it's structured if that makes sense? For example the words and paragraphs are set out differently, jumbled up, upside down, overlapping each other etc. I can't find the post and I don't know what it's called so if anyone knows please let me know, thank you :) x

Darcie, I moved your request to the "Unsolved" folder because you're looking for a specific book.

What year did you read this book?

What's the genre or tone (e.g., fiction, historical, poetry)?

GracieKat | 124 comments I second House of Leaves. It had a unique format with strange footnotes and unique sentence structure.

What very interesting lists!!

Tathariell | 173 comments There was a book that came out recently, where the author had used his favorite book, but removed words to make a new story. It was printed with holes in all the pages, and you had to skip the gaps to read it.
Tree of Codes
