Oh I don’t think I’ve heard of those before! And same lol, I feel like the cover of a book is so important. I mainly decided to read Red River Seven because of it lol

oh i really enjoyed it! it did take me a while (6 months) but i am a huge fan of Fyodor Dostoevsky. i loved everything about the book, although i do tend to get a tad confused with the names sometimes. i absolutely love his novel The Brothers Karamazov, if your looking for another recommendation

Haha, they’re a bit on the obscure side. The God of Endings is a vampire novel and the other was actually one mentioned in a humanities lecture that piqued my interest.
I’m right there with you, though. I’m totally guilty of buying/checking out books based pretty much on the cover alone

I haven’t read any Dostoevsky, yet (haven’t been brave enough LOL), but seems like this is my sign to start! It’s kind of fun to take your time with a book and let it all marinate. I’m happy to hear you enjoyed your read! You’ve definitely encouraged me to move his works up my TBR - thank you!

if you want a quicker read, he has one titled Notes from the Underground, it’s significantly shorter probably only 200 pages. that’s where i started lol

I will start there then, haha - dip my toes in his prose before I dive into the expansive depths of his other works.
