So I have finally caved and bought and started to read (morelike consume) House of Leaves. I have a few questions.

So I picked this peculiar gem up last night around 6pm, (un?)fortunately I didn't put it down to around 6am and reached page 130-ish

My question to you guys is, did anyone have a hard time following the intertwining story line and foot notes?

Also,

Has anyone been perversely affecte by this book in the way the introduction had stated?

An lastly

What are your opinions on it: NO SPOILERS please.
