If you can get through the pages of the Old Testament of such and such begot such and such who begot such and such, you'll be okay, just remember it's the Old Testament, it's important to learn it because of how it's fulfilled in the New Testament, the only worrying part are those new to the faith who read the Old Testament and think this is Christianity, I would always recommend anyone new to the faith or learning to read the New Testament first, as that is Christianity and the Old Testament puts it into context and helps us better understand the rich meaning in the New Testament, such as typography (I think that's the right word) which is very important and runs throughout in so many deep and profound ways.
It also helps people understand what Christ means such as the Real Presence when put into context with the Old Testament and thus why it cannot be just a mere symbol or metaphorical.
God Bless You

I had no difficulty at all with Leviticus, that I remember. What is your reading schedule? A certain number of chapters a day? Last year I read the whole of the OT -- something I'd never done before -- on the basis of an hour to two hours a day, five or six days a week. It took me much less time than I'd expected.

Before you read Leviticus, read the Letter to the Hebrews. There will be some references in Hebrews, particularly about sacrifices, that may raise questions in your mind. Save those questions!
When you read Leviticus, the answers may be put into perspective

The first few times I will admit I skipped that part. At least I’m honest.
