Is this actually worth reading? I understand that it's supposed to be immensely influential to the novel as a form. I have a lot of time on my hands right now. Should I bother?

No. If you absolutely have to read something from this general period, go for Fanny Burney.

It's not worthless but it's not worth slogging through if you hate it. Try it and see. The hardest bit to swallow is how mean Clarissa's family are to her for more-or-less no reason.
