Ending

Unfortunately, today I finished reading the book, but not paying as much attention as I would have liked to. I had many things to do afterschool and got home an hour ago, finishing the book in that hour. Because of that, I feel like this blog post will not be as strong as my other ones, but tomorrow I will reread today's and touch upon the thoughts I have as I comment on other's posts. From what I got reading the end of the book, I still disliked the narrator, but I guess I got so used to reading his type of writing (the rambling, switching ideas), that it was simpler for me to read. I do not like the use of Liza's character in the novel with him, but I do feel that she represents something way bigger than what she does in the book. I cannot conclude if the author is trying to portray how people really are through the narrator which I think would be himself, or if he is using Liza to portray today's (or, that time period in which this book was written's) people. As I said, I still dislike the narrator, but at the end of the book I began to feel like he might just be incredibly insecure, and that just contrasts itself by turning him into a superior and cocky mean person. I still see Raskolnikov in him, and whenever I think of Liza's name I think of Lizaveta whom is the pawnbroker Raskolnikov killed, although it has nothing to do with it. The name just connects a little. Tomorrow I will reread and really absorb the ending in detail.
