I just finished Crime and Punishment on Monday, and I started in on The Count Of Monte Cristo last night. To make a switch like this takes almost a major overhaul of the mind. While Crime and Punishment makes you think, The Count of Monte Cristo simply entertains. Which is fine by me; it's nice to have a break once in a while and just read a great story.
