Crime and Punishment
Did any of you read this book? I started reading this 2 weeks ago and I couldn’t keep it back to my shelf. Unfortunately, balancing work, life and reading together. So it’s taking a bit of extra time for me.

@MarkPaul What would you say is the main lesson within it?

@JohnnySpot This is what I love about re-reading a book over a span of years. In high school, I related most to the lesson of how alienation from society can lead to actions and behaviour that ultimately become a burden and society and circumstances are to blame.
Only a few years later, the lesson became more about how it can often seem like we are thrust into situations and circumstances beyond our control while in reality we have choices all along the way even though those choices, or any choices at all, are not often obvious.
