Honestly one of my favorite books of all time
It's dark and even though I know what's gonna happen I still get really into the reading
The ending is perfect as well

just how the pigs have slowly been becoming human and nothing had ever changed amoungst the various ways they manipulated everyone's memories and lack of ability to read etc

The story and writing made it quite dull at times, but that wasn't really the point of this story but instead to show the cons of communism, and to that point it did its job well. Even though at times I was bored, I would recommend people to read this one.
