This was good, but I feel kind of dumb. Maybe I should have saved this book for when I was more awake lol. Interesting themes and I think I’ll reread it. This also made me tear up.

I found George Orwell´s "Animal Farm" to be utterly captivating from beginning to end (I read this in one-sitting). The writing style immediately drew me in, blending elegance with accessibility to vividly portray Manor Farm and its animal residents. Orwell´s masterful use of metaphors added layers of depth to the narrative, making every character and event feel rich with symbolism. I found myself completely engrossed in the story, unable to put the book down as I followed the animal´s journey from rebellion to tyranny. Despite its simplicity and its size (it´s a short novel), the novel´s themes of power, corruption, and manipulation resonated and made me reflect on the darker aspects of human nature and society.
