Part 4 - 10/10. Relished every page.

Part 5 - 7/10. The dinner exposition was pretty monotonous, but the payoff was really good. I have mixed feelings about Sonya and Raskolnikov's meeting. I may need to spend more time on it.

Part 1 - 4 stars. Great premise and Raskolnikov’s mental state is tangible. The murder is a fantastic scene.

Part 2 - 4 stars. There’s a boring stretch but seeing Raskolnikov’s mind play out in the world— a synthesizing philosophy and his deranged wit.

Part 3 - 4.5 stars. Raskolnikov’s family drama is very compelling. The ordinary men philosophical smack down with Porfiry is the highlight so far.
