Nope, not difficult to follow at all! It's a 'verse novel', so you see a lot of the structure of a poem (stanzas, line breaks, rhythm, etc.) without a meter (like good old iambic pentameter) or rhyming (which would have put me off).
If you want to focus on the 'in verse' of it while reading you can (and I'm sure the audiobook is great for that), but I found myself reading it like it was a regular novel, then starting to appreciate the poetry once I found myself getting a feel for the rhythm of the page. I'm 25% of the way in now, so I'll include a sample of the page I'm on in a comment:

Yep, but not exactly like poetry (rhyming couplets and all). It's not difficult to read though. It reads like any other normal book.
The only hitch was it's filled with Spanish phrases and that was a turn off for me.
