Surely lots of people have read this, as it's a mainstay on reading lists.

What does everyone think? I just finished it two days ago, after months of reading (I stopped at least twice). The first part, I wasn't really into and stopped for several months, but then a few days ago I picked it up, and enjoyed reading it.

400 pages or so.

It's not an easy read, at least, it wasn't for me. And I'm a pretty avid reader.

I had to read it a few years ago. I recall it easily being the best of my summer reading that year (Along wiith Cry, the Beloved Country, Things Fall Apart [Both terrible] and some other book).

Good story, entertaining and the like.

I'm reading it, at the moment. But I lost it. So I need to find it.

Nope...I haven't read it, either. Was on said reading list but I delved off and picked up 1984 instead when I had the option of reading it.

I dunno...I don't see anything that would personally interest me towards it...which is a really really big thing for me and reading...because otherwise I barely touch it.

Catch 22 was more entertaining for me than 1984, but I finished 1984 in much much less time.
