What are some cool 'easter eggs' about this book? I've read it once in its entirety, but definitely feel like a lot of interesting details got away from me.

I am only about a hundred pages in and I am really enjoying reading it. Its not as hard as people say - just long. Actually is quite funny and somewhat comfy

It's great. I'd recommend it even if you've never read any other PoMo literature - it's accessibly entertaining, intriguing, and a lot less impenetrable than even moderate stuff like Gaddis or Joshua Cohen.

This is the first time I've heard unironic praise for IJ on /lit/ so pardon me for being doubtful. I bought IJ along with some Pynchon books, I'm getting through Vineland right now. Thinking of either reading Mason & Dixon or IJ afterwards.

Most people who actually read it enjoy it. Most of the hate for it comes from people who haven’t read it
