Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

5.0

My first Nabokov novel. Head-over-heels with this book. The premise is sick when reading the synopsis but the narration makes you forget and almost sympathize with Humbert. I preferred Humbert's character over Lolita, too. This novel introduced me to one of my top-5 authors.
