Who's interested in doing a group reading of Dostoyevsky's Notes From The Underground?

To make things interesting I threw together this website for annotating the novel as a group:
http://174.138.60.204/

(just the Project Gutenberg text with an annotator plugin, you can see annotations other people have made, pretty straightforward)

Schedule in the pic. It's a short book (~100 pages physical). At one chapter a day I think everyone will be caught up and so we can focus on critical discussion.

Who's down

i am
>>
sure, why not. I bought the ebook ages ago, would finally be a good time to actually read it...
>>
>>9677450
We startin this Monday June 26 2017 boiiiii
>>
>>9677453
Yep! I saw. I'll need to re-read the first couple chapters, that's all I got through on my first attempt.
>>
>>9677438
how do I add annotations to the website?
>>
>>9677501
Highlight a portion of the text, and a little button will pop up. Click it.
>>
>>9677438
I'm down
>>
This book is like 100 pages. And I think most people have already read it. I put my vote for Crime and Punishment or Brothers Karamazov
>>
>>9677438
Why take three weeks to read something that can easily be read in three days or less?
>>
>>9677522
Cause those of us that don't have loads of time for reading are able to keep up/
>>
>>9677564
Retweet

plus I want more time to analyze this shit
>>
this is a pretty cool idea anon, i am proud of you. Do this for other books please
>>
If we could get this going for a number of books, I'd be very interested in participating. Just read Notes 2 weeks ago though, so I won't be hanging out in this one.
>>
>>9677621
Thank you :)
>>
>>9677438
Good thread. I'm down.

If it goes well we should do one of his longer works or pick another shorter work of a similar author. Also, the narrator is lit.
>>
>>9677514
>Brothers Karamazov
This
>>
>>9677621
Listen to him, OP.
>>9677683
I've always wanted to be part of a reading group :)
>>
i have a question for anyone who has already read it. What was Fyodor Talking about when he said he used to have some sweets dream where every responsibility he had just disapeerd? he said he couldnt dream for more than 3 months or something like that. Opium? Madness?
>>
>>9677438
>Group reading of 80 something page book broken out into 10 days
>>
Sure, I wouldn't mind rereading this. A tad short for a reading group book tho.

I would be down for reading some of his other shorter works or a longer one after if this is successful.
>>
>>9677438
>21 days to read a pamphlet

What even is the purpose of these reading groups? They fizzle out within 1 or 2 threads. Just read the book and make a bait post about it to get people talking.
>>
There is such a thing as reading too slowly
>>
>>9677438
been meaning to read it for a while, lets do this. currently on moby dick group and rereading the divine comedy, but its doable
