This book is definitely a page-turner. Actually, i turned the pages several times. I would read a section just for the novel text, then go back and hit the footnotes, then read it once more for the margin notes and inserts. I found it easier to switch between story streams when I focused on one story at a time.
Overall, both (all three?) stories were interesting, and the unusual format made it a fun read. My only complaint with the format is that the print was hard to read in the footnotes (too small) and in the pencil-written margin notes (too faint). I had to use a light-up magnifying lens to read them.
