I'm looking for a book with a surreal, atmospheric, and deeply immersive quality. Something where the line between reality and dreams is blurred, and the prose itself feels hypnotic. I want to finish it and feel like I've just woken up from a vivid, strange dream.
Books like The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami or The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern gave me this feeling. What other books have that dreamlike, almost hallucinatory vibe?

*Piranesi* is over recommended here but definitely fits the bill on this one.
Try North Woods, very much that vibe.
Almost any other Haruki Murakami book will fit the bill. 1Q84 for example.
Tokyo Ueno Station by Miri Yu
