Two books that will blow your mind.

These are two recommendations of books I think everyone should read, that have the power to affect you in a very deep personal level:


The House of Leaves by Mark Z.
Danielewsky

This is by far the strangest book you'll ever read, that is, if you manage to finish it... It's a book about a book that's never existed about a movie that's never existed about a house that's never existed which happens to be larger on the inside than on the outside. Get it? Neither do I. This book will mess with your mind a little, will haunt you at night, and drive you to the limits of insanity. The thing is, you won't regret reading it.

One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

One Hundred Years of Solitude is a very appropriate title for this book, not just for the story, (which doesn't make much sense until the end) but also for the hollow sense of loneliness you experience when you're done with the last page.
This book gave me the worst book hangover I ever had; so many questions unanswered, so many mysteries that go unsolved, so many things to explain. As for the author, he doesn't care about about your suffering, he has done his job, he has submerged you into a world where the ordinary and the impossible blend without apology, a world in which you'll be trapped long after you finish reading One Hundred Years of Solitude.
