It is also interesting to see how this book is viewed: some put it in historical context, others describe how Nabokov uses his tools/words, and again others refer to other classics or speak from their morals.
I think that's one of the best uses for books myself. Using them as a discussion point to bring out all the nuances that no one person could possibly think of all by themselves.
