Could have been edited down a lot. Not a lot of plot for how many words there are.

Quizás en otra ocasión, más adelante lo termine. Ahora mismo es demasiado pesado y me quita las ganas de seguir leyendo. Además llegue a un punto del libro en el que la situación no me llama tanto la atención.

I rate the book 5.5/5 because it is one of my all-time favorites.   Nabokov is a linguistic gymnast at an Olympic level.  I couldn't help but be dazzled by many magical passages this genius created, and savor them again and again.  

Another amazing thing is that every person I know likes this book for different reasons. Depending on a reader's taste/experience, it can be a tragedy, tragedy-comedy, farce, travelogue of America, or detective story.
