So for a while now I’ve been reading HOUSE OF LEAVES and…I just can’t take this [🚽] seriously.
((Some little spoilers ahead))
I heard about the book from videos of the doom mod that it’s based on (MyHouse.wad), & I wanted to see what it was about. So I went to my school library, rented it out over the summer & started reading it. (I had been procrastinating on it for a bit though, me moving & all that)
Right now I’m on page a 72(?) & I’m starting to Get bored of it. Now don’t get me wrong the story is good, but there are 3 things that I’m struggling with
1st - it’s a little hard to read: now I know later on crazy [🚽] starts happening on the pages…but I haven’t gotten to that yet. What I mean is that I’ve had a little trouble finding words & staying on the right lines of text. like I would see a word, start reading the first parts & immediately think it’s a different word. (Sometimes I just give up trying to sound it out & immediately do google text-to-speech)
2nd - I keep thinking about backrooms: when I’m reading the parts about the documentary (the Navidson record) & the mysterious house & long ass hallway, i just can’t stop thinking about Backrooms. & if you’ve read my movie review on OBSESSION (great movie) I said I did not like the backrooms movie, and I still don’t like it. It’s more of a “action” movie then a horror movie & when I saw it I wasn’t really interested. mostly because I got a ton of spoilers online & I only liked backrooms back in 2020 or 2021. (Also I had a traumatic experience around it that I won’t talk about)
And finally 3rd - Johnny’s really annoying: every time he comes along telling his side of the story it’s just him talking about how he smoked a joint, tooks shots with his friend lude and then [🦊]ed this girl named thumper. & whats been really bothering me lately is that when he has an panic attack episode & then immediately goes about his day like nothing happened. (I’m pretty sure it’s like a spirit haunting him, but I’m like “DUDE if you stop taking every drug & alcoholic substance, then this [🚽] wouldn’t happen) 
Anyways I kind of want to keep going but I’m not so sure. If anyone has some advice to help me, that would be great
(Btw I’m working on some OBSESSION artwork at the moment, it’s gonna be a redraw of those draw-over memes. But I’m telling you which…& I’ll post my “scrapped Show idea” some time soon I just need to think on it)
