Oh boy.
If you read it like you read a novel you should just let it beand read a good history of philosophy instead.
It takes month (if not years) to read at least "πολιτεια" properly if you want to understand it.

Philosophy is not about reading as much as possible in the least possible amount of time just to be able to tell everyone "Um, yeah, I read it" - it's about really, really understanding what you read. Otherwise, it's just a good way for wannabes to waste their times.
