The Robot Librarian's Reading Challenge discussion

A novel written in "epistolary form" is one that's written in the form of assembled bits of other media -- letters, news articles, diary entries, chat transcripts, etc. It's a creative way to tell a story!

Sorcery & Cecelia: or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot is the first one that comes to mind. It actually started out as a letter game between the two authors.

House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski.
Bats of the Republic by Zachary Dodson
Griffin and Sabine by Nick Bantock
Illuminae series by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff

Gotta give a shout out to Ella Minnow Pea: A Novel in Letters! One of my favorite books.

oh i think that has been on my list for years.

I read "nothing but the truth" with my daughter during covid. Not sure if it would count but it was enjoyable and quick!

Here's a goodreads list. Not sure if this works for everyone or just me.
