I'm a bit over 50% of the way through and must admit I'm still finding it a plod. I find it a bit disjointed and am not sure if there's a problem with the translation, or if it's because Rizal was just trying to make political comment disguised as a novel, rather than being a good novelist.
I'm looking forward to hearing what others have to say - is it just HIMS and me, or do others have problems too?
Bookworm_Girl and Hamlet, are you both still enjoying it?
