I'm 25% of the way through and I hate to say it but I'm bored.
The plot is good, but Tolstoy is a writer who likes to take 10 pages to waffle around a point that could be made in 2 or 3.
And whilst I want to know what happens to the characters, I don't care enough about either Anna or Vronsky to bother sticking around to find out what leads her to her end. I hope Levin and Kitty get together though.
