Yeah I rather enjoyed it.

Although I admittedly breezed through it in a day or two rather than the chapter or two a day + homework bs the teachers expected you to do.

Speaking of Orwell, I just took out 1984 from the library today.


Great read, 1984. Thoughtful too.

I couldn't stop laughing at the 2 + 2 part

If you're on a dystopian kick with Orwell, pick up The Jungle by Upton Sinclair next. The similarities between Animal Farm and The Jungle in particular are striking, especially given that The Jungle is essentially non-fiction.

I read this a couple years ago in an English class, and though I really can't remember any details, I don't think I had too much trouble getting through it. And I really remember all the books I hated.

I couldn't read it in high school when I was supposed to but I read it last year, and after taking a class on the Cold War and Communism, made much more sense.
