I enjoyed the first section of 2666, too. I don't want to further influence you except to say that I would have thought it a pleasant, though not particularly memorable, novel if I had offered my opinion 100 pages in.
I am terrible at solving codes. I'm not particularly good at puzzles of any kind, but codes, forget it! :^)
So I guess your secret is safe from me, Lale.
