This book was so good it feels wrong to even write a review of it.
The philosophy, characters, events, psychology, theology and just everything in this novel were so perfect. I feel like everytime I read something by Dostoevsky it has a %50 chance of changing me as a person. Again there is just so much I could say but it feels intimidating to even try.
Ill leave it at this: Aloysha is a G, we should all strive to be like him. If God doesn't exist, it's necessary to believe in one anyway. Pride is the enemy of humanity, love is the goal. Suffering is necessary, but we don't have to be bound by it.
