The Unfortunates is sometimes sold bound, but sometimes as a "book in a box" where the chapters are loose and can be read in any order.

Donna | 63 comments Dracula by Bram Stoker is an epistolary novel told by letters, diary entries, and newspaper clippings.

Malice by Chris Wooding and How to Disappear Completely and Never Be Found by Sara Nickerson are both middle grade novels that go back and forth between prose and graphic novels. The latter is also dual POV, with occasional but-ins from a 3rd character.

The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage is a comic book with tons of footnotes.

You'd probably also enjoy xenofiction (books told from an animal or alien's perspective. Think Warriors.

Gabi Marquez | 1 comments Nevernight by Jay Kristoff is an adult fantasy novel about Mia who joins a cult of assassins to get back at those who killed her father. The way it's narrated is very reminiscent of someone from the realm they're in talking to you; it takes lots of getting used to but once you get a hang of it it's a fun read. If you're not a big fan of footnotes I wouldn't really recommend but if it's something you don't mind its a good book.

Perspectives are from both the main characters, and from the POV of the drugs, who in the story are personified as people. There's also interludes from other drugs, and in those you have to read both the whole words and only read the bold letters to get both messages.

Magic | 6 comments I know this is super late, but I would recommend Genuine Fraud. It’s not my favorite when it comes to the plot and stuff, but it is written backwards (the first chapter is the end of the story and it goes backwards until the last chapter which is actually the beginning of the story) and I found it super interesting.
