I enjoyed the writing, the story, the overall confusion of it all. However, and this may be because I read it online instead of a physical copy, I wasn't enchanted by it. I didn't want to keep reading and the confusion didn't feel mysterious, instead, it was just kind of annoying. The format of my online copy was a bit wonky, so that might've muddled my perception of the book.
