(5/5 stars)

I picked up Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment" expecting a quick thrill of criminal genius. Instead, I got 600+ pages of Raskolnikov brooding, analyzing, and basically living in an eternal guilt spiral. By chapter 10, I realized I had become a part-time philosopher and a full-time overthinker.

The characters? Brilliantly flawed. The plot? Slowly meticulous. The writing? Dense enough to double as a workout for your brain. I alternated between moments of awe and wanting to toss the book across the room.

To be fair, this book changed my perspective on morality, crime, and human psychology. I now question every minor decision I make. Thank you, Dostoevsky. My life has never been simpler, but my conscience certainly has never been louder.

Final verdict: if you enjoy existential dread, deep psychological insights, and a protagonist who makes overthinking an Olympic sport, this classic is for you.
