finished reading it a few days ago and it's still taking over my brain. while i was reading i was already really invested in raskolnikov and razumikhin's storyline and i spent most of the book with the idea in my head that it was showing what could've been a meaningful connection that gets cut short by folly, so i was really affected when raskolnikov said his last goodbyes to everyone. what made the book especially memorable to me was that it was not at all as dark and hopeless as i had been conditioned to expect by the title and its rep online.. the moment i realized that there was actually light at the end of the tunnel it immediately cemented itself in my 5 star hall-of-fame.

For a book written in 1848, it stands the test of time impecably. It's only 87 pages and it's a dream to read. The characters remind me of me and so it provoked my brain and actions and made me actually think about my life. I finished the book literally 3 minutes ago

Dostoevsky has a lot to say about Luigi and polyamorous communes and stuff . Also itβs hilarious to name the character who says all of your opinions the Russian equivalent of Mr. Reasonable.
