One of the very few books I had to read in school that I didn't completely despise. That and Crime and Punishment.

Crime and Punishment.


That's what I'm currently reading! :D It's amazing. I love the naturalism in it. Russian authors are pretty hard to read,nonetheless,it's worth it.

I started reading it when I was in the 9th grade,haha,but gave up,thinking it was too hard for me to understand. Got the opportunity to read it again now,after 2 years and honestly,I'm not sorry,at all,haha. *end of rant*

I struggled with keeping up with all the names, so I changed them to Americanized names. Raskolnikov became Jones, and stuff like that. I just had to remember who was who for the tests.

When you shorten the names, you cut 200 pages off the book. It really is a great book though.

I bought it for my mum's birthday, but had a cheeky read before I wrapped it up. It's hilarious.


Dude as soon as I clicked on this page this made me crack up. For a split second I thought it was Aunt Hilda from Shane Dawson. lol
