For its daunting length and meandering narrative, i was preparing to slough through the book, but i was pleasantly surprised by just how much i enjoyed it. The writing was right up my alley, the meandering tangents interesting (save for the many many chapters on waterloo which i skipped bc oh my god hugo) the characters were extremely well developed and complex and went through clear growth.
