@Dostoevskyquot Un Believe Able

describe this book in THREE words

@the_book_land I tried three times and couldn’t get into it. But on the fourth time, it finally clicked. And I think it’s because I was much older and in a better place to appreciate it.

I firmly believe that not reading Crime and Punishment is a literary crime.

@MattKaramazov I often don’t remember content but I always remember the way I felt while reading a book and immediately afterward.

Do you remember everything you read? I don't. I remember a tremendous amount (and I've kept detailed notes from all 1,400+ books that I've read since 2014), but I still forget plenty. However - and this is important - most of the 1,400+ books I've read? I've ENJOYED reading them. I try never to forget that that's kinda the point.

@OedipasKvass Reading it now and I know I’ll have to reread it again and again. What a hoot!

Yeah I still think this is one of his best. Probably my second favorite of his after this reread. Not a single word out of place.

@worillessg “A Confederacy of Dunces” is awful

@AuthorGFAllen I was bewildered that people considered “A Confederacy of Dunces” a great book. I struggled to get through it and almost quit twice. Ugh!

Have you ever read a super popular book that was written so badly it genuinely annoyed you?

@adrianmckinty I couldn’t agree with you more.

in my opinion REMAINS OF THE DAY, ARTIST OF THE FLOATING WORLD and NEVER LET ME GO are pretty much perfect
