The Raw Shark Texts, by Steven Hall
An experimental novel a la House of Leaves, which I loved. This, less so. The experimental stuff seemed unnecessary; the story dragged in places. The bare minimum of text in the last 50 or so pages was a gift – I might not have finished the book otherwise. Just no momentum for it.
