I struggled with it too, but I don't think it's just the translation (although some of the phrasing is awkward), for me there was a disconnect with the mindset / cultural assumptions at times.
Not enough to make it unreadable, but enough to break the flow at times. It's rare for me to have to reread a paragraph for comprehension, but I had to a few times in this series.
