I liked the world building and that we got to know the characters so well.
However, I don't know how accurate it is, how much research Dostoevsky did.
And also I wish we knew the narrator. At first I thought it was Raskolnikov from the future looking back, but it's not. And then I don't understand why there seemed to be inconsistencies in it. Raskolnikov thought of one thing, we didn't see him follow it through and then it was just done.
