I re-read it in the last year. I think I plodded through, just to finish it. I don't remember it now as being so long, but the different episodes are interesting and worth persevering. Can't say that I loved it, bu glad I reaqd it. It's one that you can pick up and put down as you feel like it.

I loved the first 3rd? Hated the middle part and just started to enjoy it again, however I'm not a good reader and I am having a break and reading shorter/easier books.

My biggest struggle is keeping up with the names.

My trick with books that aren't getting me is to jump to the last chapter and read a few pages. If it's interesting enough that I want to know how it got there I'll go back and keep reading. If it's not I'll give up on the book.

I disliked first couple hundred of pages, just totally not the kind of book I would normally read. But I knew I would finish it, even if I didn't like it, so it was easier. I think at about 600-700 pages I was actually interested in the story and how it would end and from this point onward I stayed invested. It's not my all time favorite, but I'm glad I've read it, I think it's finely executed and you do appreciate by the end of it how all the plot lines fall into place.

Is there a specific thing you dislike in the book?

It's a lot of set up at the beginning, but I personally feel like it "picks up" at the chapter entitled "Number 34 and Number 27", lol.
