The first half of the book was as mysterious in many ways as anything I'd read. If this book did not have the strong reputation that it does, I probably would have abandoned it.
In the second half it becomes incredible very quickly!

This one was deeply fascinating, and I can't wait to both read the rest of the series and watch the Netflix version.
It seemed to go back and forth between narrative elements, flashbacks, and also extended sequences of physics/scientific explanation, which I could just barely keep up with. But it wasn't enough to scare me away, and worth it for the payoff and immersion in the story.
