Meh. It's not that bad as long as you don't overly focus on every granular detail as you go along. Just read it, keep going even if you feel lost, then go back and reread if you feel it's necessary. Also, since I don't think Capital is taught in colleges much if at all anymore (?), I recommend people read and then listen to/watch David Harvey's multiple part series (on YouTube for free). He contextualizes the chapters with his historical knowledge and inserts his own personal experiences as a lifelong and now very old Marxist scholar. No one will please everyone, but he's quite good. I read through Capital in about a month (or so) along with him. He also covers Vol II/III (selected chapters)
tbf just reading Capital outright is probably a year long headache
