i really just wanted to read Notes From Underground. finished that part of it & it was good. The Double started out interesting but it’s just too slow and repetitive.

I actually really enjoyed Notes from Underground. The Double, however, is a different story. I couldn't make heads or tales of it and I'm still not sure about what I've read exactly. As an average, I'm giving it 3 stars, but Notes from Underground is doing most of the heavy lifting in that rating...

Such a great and early absurd depiction of human consciousness!
