I think this is a really good book, but not nearly on the level of Crime and Punishment and The Idiot.

The same cleverness and pacing of Dostoevsky's other works, but not the same intricacy of plot, and not nearly as fun. I got this spirit of intellectual tomfoolery from the 2 other books that wasn't as apparent here.

All in all, still a must read because F.D. is the man.
