2.0

I don't know what I expected from this book but it delivered nothing. There were mostly dialogues, dialogues and dialogues. I would have preferred some more description. The story was rushed.
If you ask me to differentiate between characters, I would not be able to do it. All I knew about them was that they were part of the dead poets society, Neil liked acting etc. I didn't connect with the bonding of Mr. Keatings and the boys. It lacked emotions. I did like the last chapter though. It could have been impactful if the characters were fleshed out. 
I'll probably watch the movie.

4.75

The 4.75 scoring is solely for the storyline and it’s message. If you want an eloquently written book that’s full of beautiful writing, this is not the book for you. The writing was bland, but I was able to overlook that and just focus on the concept that was being presented

2.5

I am aware that this was written after the movie was released, but I still wish the author would have used the medium book better. This book mostly describes the visuals of the movie and doesn’t even try to give us a deeper insight into the characters. There’s virtually no inner monologue and so most of the characters are extremely flat and blend into one another. Also, they added the creepiest scene ever between Chris and Knox…
