For me, I could only read the first paragraph. No other text showed up. If I scrolled back up, the first paragraph was gone too.

I experienced the same thing. Then after reopening the page the content showed up, but I was no longer interested in the content, only wanted to see the page source to see how can a page be so broken, and it was no longer broken.
So if you are still interested in the content, you should try opening the page again. It may work.

#8I've just started reading this book. As an object, it's pretty neat. My big complaint is that all of the stuff they've put into the pages can fall out and that ruins the experience quite a bit. I wish they had an index for all the cards and other things so that I could put the book back together.
Edit: if the site doesn't link for you, go to Amazon and search for Ship of Theseus. That's the book the article is about.

#9It amazes me that they could make it in bulk for $20 (https://www.amazon.com/Ship-Theseus-J-Abrams/dp/0316201642).
Among the pages are cards and other items that the two fictional readers shared or saved.

Thankfully someone did make an index for the all cards and inserts in the book and where they belong:

To my knowledge, the "meta book" is named "S". That's the name on the book cover. OTOH, inside the cover is "Ship of Theseus" which is the made-up book that the made-up meta characters are writing in the margins of. It looks like Amazon now allows you to search for either.
