Can’t imagine a world where books aren’t allowed. I also read this during a reading slump. Not a good idea because the entire first chapter sounds just like word vomit and stray thoughts.

I love this classic sci-fi/dystopian page-turner that is still relevant for today's society even 50+ years after it was written.

Zach said he read this book in middle school and I wish I would have as well. I can only imagine how crazy this book is for someone who read it 30 some years ago and reads it again now. It's probably terrifying.

I’ve always loved this book. Perhaps, I have read it 4-5 times since I first read it in 9th grade. From the first time, I knew Bradbury’s style would captivate me and it still does. However, as I continue reading and learning, this time around I can now find the weaknesses of character development and depth that I previously ignored. Still, this is one of my favourite books of all time.
