As someone who has read the Silmarillion several times, any attempt at reading The History of Middle Earth peters out quite quickly.
That's exactly my experience. It doesn't help that I have the 12-in-3 book boxed edition that has almost see through thin pages... ๐
The Silmarillion I have also read multiple times though, both in English and German.
