Just read the navidson parts. Believe me, itll be much more enjoyable.

Skip everything that involves Johnny asides from the intro. I'm not kidding. It doesn't add a single fucking iota of quality or meaning to the book, it's just shitty forced-postmodern garbage.

The main body of the text is pretty great though

Don't listen to these idiots OP.
Buying it's the best choice. Any copy you might manage to find at a library will look like it's been dragged to hell and back.

I really like the concept but post-modernist bullshit and "it's really about romance" has kept me away from it. There's something incredibly neat about these simple things like places that are bigger on the inside or where time moves differently but I've very rarely seen that kind of thing used well in literature. It's always really about something else than the mystery or horror.
