Second time reading it was by far the most satisfying reading experience I've ever had

I dropped it on like book 7 when the bad guys were dressed as Fascists. Imagine being a cuck like that when you are Japanese.

Really? I thought The Gambler seemed like one of Dostoevsky's weakest novels. Maybe it hits different if you're into gambling

the book made me angry. how the girl that the protagonist loved had reciprocated feelings, but the natures of the two repelled each other. i am a good gambler. poor folk had me upset and white knights floored me, but sonya made it all worthwhile.
