    I love that book! I should re-read it now that I speak Russian. It helps to know some Russian since most of his slang words are actually Russian word. I think I would understand it better now. The book is better than the movie IMO.

    I'm reading "The Karamazov Brothers", author: Fedor Dostoievski.
    I'm a slow reader.

    Ah, I'm going to have to be unoriginal, lol... I'm reading On the Road by Jack Kerouac.
    I'm also reading On Human Nature by Thomas Aquinas for school.
