Finished House of Leaves (very weird, very interesting, would require like 4 more re-reads to actually understand it and I'm not sure I have the strenght for it), started my... 4th? 5th? Re-read of The Goblin Emperor bc someone here asked me for a few words on it and it put me in the mood to dive right in ^^
I have that book on my shelf and I think I very much need to be a good place mentally for it LMAO
Honestly I didn't find it all that disturbing/scary, but YMMV (I'm uncommonly resistant to most forms of horror so probably not the best person to ask if this book will mess you up). It mostly just required a lot of focus.
