Finished The Brothers Karamazov while in a crisis center. Not rehab, but close. Six days. Six hundred spirals. One Russian novel.

Final thoughts?

• Smerdyakov is a piece of shit
• Mitya’s chaotic but not hopeless
• Ivan’s smarter but sadder
• Alyosha’s the only one who gets it

It’s messy. And I like mess.

If you like gossip, guilt, tea, theology, murder, daddy issues, and courtroom drama — this book is for you.
