jonmayb 's review for:

Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Fyodor Dostoevsky
2.5
dark mysterious sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
While I did enjoy myself while reading this, it quickly became repetitive. After a couple hundred pages the endless psychological breakdown of the book's antihero, Raskolnikov, becomes boring. The book's ending, additionally, felt anticlimactic and ultimately seemed to convey a peculiar message to the reader, which I didn't take very well to.
