Etc. - Any shorter paths through "David Copperfield"?

I picked this up at a going out of business sale and would really like to read a good chunk of it just not in entirety. I haven't read much Dickens except a weird short story and I'm coming off another coming of age tale so I think this one could capture his essence, since I like to skip around a lot. I'm sorry if this offends any Dickenites but the book is 900 pages and I feel drawn to this tale yet have a short attention span and would like to just read essential sequences. Besides ch. 5, the beg. and end I don't know where to go. Thanks for any help with this one.
