I didn't love this as much as Orlando, but its dreamlike quality and its philosophical introspection somehow lured me in.
The second part lost me a bit, but overall this is an example of a book that only works, if you are picking it up at the right time in your life.
Take your time with it, let it sink in, read parts several times. For me it helped a lot to be listening to it on audio, it transported the atmospheric writing of Woolf really well for me.
