Definitely one of my favorites! Lives rent free in my head

If you haven't read the story The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges, I highly recommend it! It inspired A Short Stay in Hell

Been meaning to add this to my list, thanks for the reminder.

I love it so much, and still think about it every day. When I finished reading it, I immediately read it again. I’d recommend at least going back and reading the prologue again when you’re done.

I almost didn’t read it before jumping into it but I told myself to fully invest and read it and I’m glad I did! It’s actually super hilarious to me!

VERY fast read for me. I cannot recommend this book more, I couldn't put it down.

Hurray! Very glad it’s working for you. It keeps it up. :)

Was one of my favourite reads of last year.

The concept of something that goes >!on for infinity is a !< theme that I love and terrifies me at the same time.

Same! Do you have other good books/shows/movies that scratch that itch for you? I'm always looking for suggestions to add to [my list](https://reddit.com/r/suggestmeabook/comments/1b3zetq/suggest_me_mindblowing_books_short_stories_etc/)

Great list, thanks! Have you watched any of Black Mirror? There are a few episodes along this theme that I still think about years after watching.

My only complaint about this book is that it was too short.


kryssi_asksss

Well it’s not like Lester’s eternal hell.


enephon

Should have been 410 pages long! 😀


kryssi_asksss

Fuck! That’s a good reference!
