Infinite Jest or House of Leaves?

If you slammed them together repeatedly I think Infinite Jest would hold together before blowing apart, then again House of Leaves has a thicker cover so you may have to just try it yourself

Infinite jest
House of leaves I got the impression that it used gimmicks to hide the fact that the core story is only so so.

IJ did the same thing by being huge and having footnotes.

you didn't like getting lost in the story about someone getting lost in a story they made up about a group of editors getting lost in a story about someone getting lost in a story that the author has already been lost to, in which the story is about people getting lost in a depiction of story?

Infinite Jest is a great book.

WHAT DOES SHE SAY???

This.

IJ
HoL was bloated and gimmicky like IJ, but with less substance. Or that's what I thought.
