I concur. If I can read it (while still looking up lots of vocab), you'll definitely be able to read it. I just pencil in the punctuation as I go. It makes reading it WAY easier. (Plus I'd like to read your paq'batlh reviews ... like you're doing with the Silmarillion!)

That's indeed very hard when reading it. A good advice for a good practice: Analyze the text, and put the punctuation marks where you think they make sense.

whenever voragh quotes the paq'batlh, and I am trying to read just a few
sentences, I feel like smashing my phone against the wall.

I can't help but hear myself saying "how the f*** am I supposed to
understand this" ?

Read your previous lines again, an then read your message where you wrote that you will stop using punctuation marks. :-/

Think about it again.
