It's a great read, I encourage you to do so. Some people say they find the first parts difficult. If it's your case, instead of quitting, I recomend you to simply skip these parts: its a collection of thoughts, you could miss some and read them in any order. Also, there are some books from modern writers who explain/summarize the *Meditations*, but I encourage people to read the original book instead: it's short and it's understandable, so why read someone else interpretation?
