I had to read it for a school essay (that determined my going to the uni of my choice). I was really happy that they picked something from my home country so that I could read it in russian (that excitement did not last long). By gods, it is frustrating to read because of the archaic language.
Great book just very sad and frustrating at times
@Tori I’m on chapter 5 and so far enjoying it. I had to look up all the characters before had because I got confused with the names 3 pages in lol
@London I read it in Russian. It takes a minute to get use to them
Brilliant book
good choice

The only book I’ve never finished
Excellent.
Loved it??
Dark & depressing, but I LOVED it!❤️
Loooooooong. Lol
Great book.
Had to buy Spark Notes to keep track of who everyone was….Russian novels are hard to read with all the nicknames everyone has!!!
@Jill I wrote down all the character names from spark notes lol before I started
Really like it but it’s along haul
Haven’t read it yet..but classics are the best.( on my tbr list)
One day I will read this. I heard it’s kind of long and hard to read. But I would like to experience reading this book.
Too lengthy..but good ?
I wanted to love it!
Ufff
As long as I reminded myself of the time period it was written in I enjoyed it. But, if I would forget that it would annoy me. Lol
I only remember the ending, but it has been over 35 years since I read it. Once was enough.
Really really really really didn’t like it. ?
One of my most favourite books – loved it!
I really loved it, but found it incredibly sad.
I’ve never attempted it but I hope you enjoy it! Let us know.
Literary masterpiece but not not my cup of tea. Attempted many times to read this epic novel but failed every time.
