Going in, i felt it would be a slog, like most of the famous pre-20th century books that are now read more for an understanding of how modern literature got to where it is, ala Frankenstein as one example. War and Peace is not like that. Like effectively all of Tolstoy's works, it feels incredibly modern and well paced, with believable and likeable characters. very good yes yes
