Hm. Mostly I did love the story, and - like other people here - thought that the excerpts made a nifty way of telling the story from multiple viewpoints with totally unreliable narratives. Because, well, I wouldn't want EVERY story to be like this, that would get old, but as a change... it was very cool.

I didn't go squee about the footnotes, but I do have enormous footnote love. It's mostly from places like the Discworld novels, though, or Good Omens.

And seriously, I did just graduate college, but my reaction to academia isn't so much "Celebrate!" as "Oh for fuck's sake, aren't I done with this yet??!" ...so I probably wouldn't be joining that kind of squee much anyway.
