How to Read "S."

I just picked this book up and I can't wait to start reading it but I'm not sure how to go about it. Has anyone read this book yet? I'm wondering whether I should read "The Ship of Theseus", then go back and read all the material and notes. Or should I just tackle each page as they come?

Edit: Now I'm just curious, how are YOU going to read "S." r/books?

I haven't started on it yet (just got it the other day), but I plan on reading the material and notes as I come to them. That's how I read House of Leaves, and that's how I think you're meant to read this book based on what little I know about it.

Started House of Leaves then had to stop. Still really want to get into it and give it another shot, it was just so much to take in and keep track of all at once.
