It’s hard for me to pay very close attention when I listen to an audiobook, so I’m sure I missed some stuff. 
Anna’s affair was really well-written, especially
the toxicity and insecurity in the relationship
. I’ve experienced something similar (in a very minor way) and it felt very familiar. 
Levin’s story was a bit hit or miss with me. Often nothing was really happening, but I do like his complicated character, and
the ending was very sweet and wholesome with him finding God and seeing the world through new eyes
. 
Very very slow, pace yourself, but an interesting journey into people’s psychology.
