I just started the book about 4 days ago and immediately was hooked on Dantes situation.

I’m about 400 pages in and Dumas is kind of focusing on other characters I don’t find as interesting as Edmund.

I know is a masterpiece, but am I just in the doldrums of the middle? I know Dumas was paid by the word back in the day but it seems some characters are irrelevant.

Will the ultimate revenge on the three who conspired against him negate my monotony of the middle of the book? I will finish it regardless.

Thanks!

    Worth it to read the whole thing. I recommend a break if you’re getting burnt out.

    I’m guilty of reading 4-6 books at a time for this very reason.
