1984

The next book I will be reading is 1984 by George Orwell. The book is a classic and is very well known. Also the book is written by a great author in a time period right after World War 2. I believe that this might effect the book. Also, the time period is a long time ago so the word choice and complexity might challenge me. On a different note, 1984 was George Orwell's prediction of the world in 1984. I think that the concept of the book is very different from anything I've read so I wanted to challenge myself and read it.

The book wasn't recommended to me, but I've heard great things about it. I hope that the book lives up to its hype. Also, I've read another book by George Orwell, which I really enjoyed, so I hope I enjoy this book as much. The book is a classic for a reason, so I hope I enjoy it like a classic.

  1. David,
    I have not read this book either, but I have also heard great things about it. I read Orwell's Animal Farm and really enjoyed it. Orwell has a very nice writing style and has a great use of literary elements such as symbolism and personification. Hope it was a good read!
