| My English teacher said it was a hard book to read when she assigned it to us. I want to know people's serious opinions on it if you've read it. Ease of readability, how interesting is it, etc. |

| I have never read it, usually schools require you to read it but not mine. I'm gonna read it over the summer though, no I'm actually not required to, I legitimately want to. |

| I've heard of it and apparently there is a part so boring in it that a kid wrote "skip here" in my friends book and then a few pages after wrote "resume reading here." |

| 200 or so. I think, I don't know for sure. I haven't even touched the book yet (figuratively speaking, I touched it to put it in my backpack). |

| Oh when you said it was going to take that long I figured it was longer. That's pretty manageable. |

| Well, our supposedly honors class moves slower than the regular class. Hell, we might be slower than the remedial class.
It's 326 pages in the paperback form. |
