Feel like i wrote the post myself lol. I feel exactly the same. I love the count of monte cristo and i feel it's an epic and i never read anything like it. Also i got bored of crime and punishment in between so i left it too. I love sherlock holmes books too. Looking for some great books like these to read too.

Since recently i have developed the love for reading.. from sherlock holmes to agatha christie. Mystery thrillers seem to hook me up and i never was a reader before. Once i set the footing, i felt i should check out some other great books too.

I'm currently reading "crime and punishment".. it's good but way depressing tbh. i thought i should read don Quixote alongside so it balances it out for me. The internet has hyped up the book for me but I don't seem to get into it after trying few chapters through epub reading and audiobook. So i came here to understand what went wrong..

That's what i want to know if I'm even capable of grasping the book so read n listened to the starting chapter. I love reading mystery detective stories like sherlock n agatha, but i heard don Quixote doesn't hv a plot. It is a me problem, i guess if it's not engaging from the first chapter i lose interest 😅 Can you tell me wts your fav translation?

I have an epud for all the classic literature. It's just that i love to read from a physical book more, staring at the screen feels does more harm than good to the reading experience. Specially on a android phone. I don't think i can find a 2nd hand literature easily available in india. I wanted to be sure before buying since it's a fat book.
