It's always difficult to sit down with a giant book. Seems like there's no light at the end of the tunnel - it's just too overwhelming. Especially when the publication looks like an encyclopedia tome.

I've already read Anna Karenina. It's another gigantic Tolstoy book. It's fantastic - I loved it. It took me a few months to get through but it was well worth it.

I'm sure when I get to War and Peace I'll enjoy it. I just have to actually sit down and read it.
