“‘Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of ‘facts’ they feel stuffed, but absolutely ‘brilliant’ with information. Then they’ll feel they’re thinking, they’ll get a sense of motion without moving. And they’ll be happy, because facts of that sort don’t change. Don’t give th...
The catch-up book club has got me hopping on books I should have read years ago or did read years ago and never really thought about. This seems to be one of two books my high school self just flat-out LIED about reading. I'm horrified. I have no idea why I didn't read this one, though I now complet...
I didn't read this in school or study all the meanings behind it so I'm sure I missed a lot. I think I get that it's against book burning and focusing so much on entertaining like tv that we miss the wisdom in life. People often become kind of like sheep and just follow instead of educating themse...
For me, the novel is a little difficult to comprehend but with some online research it all links and makes sense. It’s a book that’s different from others and I believe that’s why is has a lot of recognition. In the future I will read this once again to understand it more thoroughly. In the future I...
According to the popularity of this book, long time wanted to read it. I expected that this book will totally change my mind but after reading my mind was just disappointed. Especially because of the ending. Can't say that it was wasting of time, you should read it at least because of the populari...
I didn’t know what to expect from this book, I wasn’t sure I would like it but I already had it on my library so I started reading it anyway. I’m so glad I did it. From the very beginning it got my atention, I couldn’t stop. It’s so interesting and if you came to think about it, even if it is fictio...
Another classical book read. Yay. This was a good one. A story about firemen burning down houses that contains books was just what I needed. It's thought provoking (and gruesom!) why they're doing it, and that helped me to keep reading.While this book was a good classical novel, I didn't found it to...
ACTUAL RATING 1.5 STARSI don't get it. Guy Montag makes little sense at best, absolutely no sense at his worst. In addition to this, he is an idiot, sheep,(see above).Why? BECAUSE IT'S ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE'S PLAN.I get that he came up with the After-the-war-let's-bring-books-back idea, but he prett...
Everyone seems to know something about Ray Bradbury’s classic dystopian novel, Fahrenheit 451, even if you haven’t read it. In a future America where books are banned and burned by “firemen,” individuals have given up control of their lives to the simple comforts afforded by the mass media. Wall-siz...
