I have read a lot of classic books and several of them are quite dull. I have no idea why you would read both Wuthering Heights and The Count of Monte Cristo just because they are "classic".

For people that really want to read through some these books, I actually recommend the abridged versions first. It is a lot easier to read the details of the full novel if you have read the abridged versions, and know that you enjoy the story.

Another suggestion if you just want to get used to reading long books is to start with something more modern like the Game of Thrones books, Lord of the Rings, or Harry Potter.
