Finished Book VII and commentary by Bloom.
This was the turning point Book for me after reading Bloom's commentary.

Book VI has by far been the most difficult to understand. Ancient Greek, translated to and Old English grammar structure, where the explanations of concepts are wholly verbal and every ounce of the description has to be understood before you receive an expansion on the topic on the following page. A brutal abstract thinking exercise but satisfying when it makes sense. Lots of re-reading.
