Ch. 2 finished. I tried a different approach, this time read story chapter first, then go back & read the margin notes. Easier to read for sure and also more involved in the story, but also less intrigued by the margin notes somehow.
Going to continue with this approach for now. I wonder if after all this I'm going to want to read House of Leaves, too.

Ch. 3 finished. I've never read a book so slowly, but that's a foregone with this type of book. I liked the extra personal touch via the notes and the insert letter from Jen. The story itself remains weird...

5 stars atm! Lots of questions and uncertainty, theory, guesses. In a normal book this could be signs of bad writing or a very weird story. In this case it's more than design. Each page is filled with margin notes, written by 2 people at different points in time, weaving layers of metaplot.
So, one part is the story itself and that just turned from a dark fiction to horror within one paragraph! Wow - intense!

The adventure begins! Notepad set up and ready, wrapped in warm blanket, dog warming my stomach, dark clouds outside, thermos flask with tea. Off we go!
The margin notes are fun! Adds cool layers to the book. I'm only at the foreword and already it's intriguing.
<spoiler>page xiii: wtf.. chapter 10 is missing the last original page? Cliffhanger much?!</spoiler>
