Definitely read it in French.
It'll help your general French no end, and also translations are often too free.

Stick with it - I found it really hard to read a French novel at first, but it DOES get easier after a while!

Also, if you don't know some words, don't look up every single word you don't know, just try to get the sense of it.

Good luck!
