I liked the book a lot up until like the 75% mark when she went to Hungary. The problem was mainly the fact that it felt like the plot completely disappeared and it became clear there would be no definite conclusion which I wasnmt prepared for. But I am still going to read ”Either Or” because, as I said, I did like the writing and the story for most of the book.

While the writing is often well crafted and poignant, The Idiot left me feeling like I read a novel-length study on linguistics rather than a compelling story.

I'd be lying if I said that I enjoyed this book. I can’t believe it took me 5 months to finish this book? I can't say I disliked it though, because looking back, this book had a lasting impression on me. I relate to Selin so much with her infatuation, and I have so many annotations with some of her thoughts kn academia and so.
