It hasn't aged super great. Definitely feels a little gimmicky in hindsight.

This.
I remember this book being spammed hard on /x/ all the time so I read it when it's was still a popular. It seemed cool at the time but looking back it definitely was just a meme. Beyond the gimmicks of it mixing real life with fiction and the goofy layout the shit that stands out in my mind is the titty fucking, the dead dog scene and how much time was spent on the dudes on the giant staircase.

Here's some related shit from it's heyday

It's a masterpiece that demands a lot of effort and will never be satisfyingly understood. Your reward is heartbreak, nightmares, frustration and obsession.
