After the first 150 pages, which I found strangely hard to read, it was just so different, I got swooped into this book. Very entertaining, lough out funny at may times, deeply wise at others or the same.

An interesting New Weird novel that stretched to the absolute limit how much oddity I'm willing to read. The style of repetetive, bait-and-switch writing wore thin after a while (Picture a house. It is just like you are picturing, except that it does not in any way resemble what you are picturing), but I understood its purpose in setting the mood of the novel. As far as the story, 90% of the plot is hiding in the last 10% of the novel, although the point of this novel was not the plot, so it's not that much of a detractor. I'm also sure there were a lot of references and other Easter eggs I missed, as I've never listened to the podcast the novel is based on.

a really interesting concept, and a unique writing style, but couldn't immerse myself in the story. is there a "it wasn't you, it was me" for books?
