    I have a couple of gift cards for book stores that I'm looking to use up. Since I have limited space for keeping books, most purchases I've made in the last few years have been ebooks, with actual physical book purchases being reserved for books that fit into one of two categories: books I absolutely love and just want physical copies of, or books that feel like they would suffer being read in ebook form. It's this latter I'm looking for.

    Generally this is books that either have a number of illustrations in them that would suffer being on an ebook screen, or books that do wacky things with page layout or typefaces or whatever. Books like House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski, or XX by Ryan Hughes, or Sysiphean by Dempow Torishima.

    Any genre is welcome. I'm not looking for suggestions for graphic novels or art books right now, and I'm also not necessarily just looking for books that have one or two pages with images that would be good to flip back to now and then (like a fantasy novel with a map or a gothic novel with a family tree or something).

    Thanks!
