Still deeply enjoyable -- and I'm still sad that Piranesi loses his innocence and leaves the House.
Both times I've read this book so fast, and both times I've felt wistful that it's over, and that I have to leave the House. I personally would hate living there and learning to survive there, but I wish I could see the statues, feel a little of the peace of the place
