David Mitchell: Slade House (2015, Knopf Canada)
Published Oct. 27, 2015 by Knopf Canada.
"Down the road from a working-class British pub, along the brick wall of a narrow alley, if the conditions are exactly right, you'll find the entrance to Slade House: a surreal place where visitors see what they want to see, including some things that should be impossible. Every nine years, the house's residents--an odd brother and sister--extend a unique invitation to someone who's different or lonely: a precocious teenager, a divorced policeman, a shy college student. But what really goes on inside Slade House? For those who find out, it's already too late" --
Slade House was a fun, quick read that built on the world of The Bone Clocks. I thought the tie-in to @I_Bombadil's Twitter feed was very creative; in fact, I re-read Twitter after finishing Slade House and picked up on several important details.
