I hated this book. One of the few I couldn't force myself to finish. I was so frustrated with Tolstoy's annoying habit of dwelling on the mundane then casually skimming over the human stories and oh, you know, a rather controversial pregnancy. Ugh! I know, I know... it's "great literature" but I found it to be completely overrated. A huge disappointment.

To many books right now. Will give it a new try again in the future.
