The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas

[Meg]

Well I finally finished it. *huge sigh of relief*
It's not that it was bad - there was a lot I liked, particularly the first section of the story and the end. But there was just too much, the middle really really dragged. This is my third attempt at reading this book - I've never made it more than halfway before. Listening to it as an audiobook helped me get through it but it also meant that I often drifted off and lost the story a bit, meaning that I often lost track of who was who and why they were doing what they were doing.

I have about 15% left to read. I'm picking up the pace a bit now that I am nearly finished. I agree the middle dragged a bit and i sometimes found it difficult to keep track of who was who.
