I’m having such a difficult time understanding why this book is highly praised? I feel so let down because I really wanted to love this book just like everyone else.
Yes there is a message being told, but quite frankly the writing style makes it impossible to know what the message even is?!

This book couldve been a bit longer for me as i feel that at times it was a bit rushed. Overall i really liked the story and the possible messages behind it, especially in times like now where AI takes over a lot of functions that a book has, for example some people rather read an AI summary than the book and then they say theyve read the book. What i also loved about this book is how it is still a topic that is very present at the moment (with the book banning in the US), which does say a lot about how fucked up our world is. Is this my favorite dystopian novel? Not at all. Do i still like it and am i still glad that i read it and will i recommend it to people? Absolutely yes. I get why this is a classic.

The irony of me listening to this as an audiobook via my “seashell” headphones while sitting next to my husband on the couch while he watches tv in our “parlor”….
