Just a test read of mine, but Jane Eyre is an interesting character. A good read, I should say. But I think I will not read this occasionally for now, as I still have books that I'm currently reading. You could say that I'm "testing the waters" in this book.

Reading the part where Jones and his cohorts came back to the farm, with 'The Trickster' playing was so effing immersive. Damn.

I bought this today (pre-loved book) and so far, it is actually enjoyable. I felt bored first on reading this but the more that I read, the more that I'm drawn to the characters. I'm slowly getting accustomed to how Fitzgerald wrote his prose because it is somewhat beautiful and deep, I would say.

Currently on Chapter 5. I enjoyed it.

The more that I read this, the more that I felt apathetic. It's just like how I felt his apathy in everything and his constant "it doesn't really matter" vibe is getting on me.

I think I need to read this again, because I can't see the point of Camus here. Maybe the point is that there's no point. Sorta like the absurd.

I've been reading this for awhile now. Nothing really happens at this point of the novel, besides his ongoing apathy in his everyday life.

The character, I would say, is so confusing to understand because of how contradictory he is to what he's doing, to the point of feeling skeptical, but it's on me.

I am at the point where they were on vacation. Looking forward to how things unfold, regards to what's happening rn

I don't know what to say about the Underground Man, but he's such an asshole.

But to say the least, it's a pretty interesting take on the human mind (or behavior?), especially on its complexities. First time reading this I would say, its been so confusing to what the Man was pointing out. But rereading the chapters gives me a glimpse of who he really was.

Currently at the start of Chapter 3. Good book, I would say

Eln is on page 49 of 432 of Republic: Plato’s Most Influential Work of Ancient Political Philosophy and Ethics (Collins Classics)
Man, Glaucon's opening argument in Book II is a strong argument at this point, maybe because we had the same view about justice.
You can really see the beauty of debates because of how they were working together to reach for an agreement or for the "truth."

Imma keep reading this to fully see how it unfolds. But overall, it's been a pretty interesting read, as it fully grasps your mind on the dialogues.
