Okay, now that I am in my full POE mode, has anyone read House of Leaves by her brother Mark Daneilewski?

I saw POE on her Borders tour. She was awesome, just her and a DJ singing songs off her Haunted CD while her brother read from the book. I was in tears a couple times.

I hadn't thought about the book in a while, but was hoping someone had already read it.

Snow Patrol Final Straw
Franz Ferdinand Franz Ferdinand
Coldplay Parachutes

If you're curious, and I know you are damnit:
