I prefer War & Peace to Anna Karenina. I consider it the best book every written.

**Emo_Saur_** · 10-22-2010, 11:20 AM

I prefer twilight.

In all honesty, War & Peace wasn't interesting to read. I got like 250 pages in and I was like no thanks. I love Victor Hugo, Les Miserables was great. When I was in Choir we sang quite a big of songs from the musical.

I stopped reading your response there. I would normally flame people for liking such tripe, but you're allowed to like what you want. You really just can't compare a young adult cash-in series with great literature. It's apples and oranges.

Eh if you read on you'd realize I was kidding. I like reading books from all forms of art, I do not however enjoy twilight. I liked vampires, then I hit puberty then I started to read/watch religious movies and books, books about time of war or misfortune. Many of the readings I have done have made huge decisions in my life mainly my religious faith though.

Funny cause I read this book for ap 11. Srs one of the best books I've ever read which is hard to say cause victor hugo's les misérable was really good too.

Crime and Punishment. The most boring book ever. Way too many details. It's an interesting book when you're analyzing/discussing it.

I agree about the overly detailed aspect of the book; however, those details open up so many possiblities during in class discussion. My favorite topic was the complexities in the whole nihlist theory and how it could tie into elitism.

This book really is absolutely fantastic. I should type more and express my thoughts but it's late and I'm tired, so I don't wanna say something that might get misinterpreted or something. I'll edit if I remember to.

still wrong

ps ive never read anna k. haha i was just kidding (even though i have heard it's an excellent book from a few people that i respect very much, so i'll eventually check it out)

C&P isn't actually my favorite book - The Glass Bead Game/Magister Ludi by Hesse is. however, C&P made one of the more lasting impressions on me out of any piece of literature.

i very much disagree that the book is "too detailed." almost every detail has an intricate place in the psychological analysis that dostoevsky creates; almost no detail truly goes without utilization. i think most people don't like the "detailed" nature of the narrative because their attention spans can't handle his clauses.

Heh, I completely agree. I was going to say the exact same thing
