The novel itself I really enjoyed. At first chapters seemed to move too quickly, but once I felt like it was mimicking the episodic nature of a tv show, I was fine with that.

But...

The codas contained too much smug self-satisfaction parading as clever meta for my taste. Brought down my entire reading experience by the time I had slogged through the last of them.
