When I first started reading it I kind of hated it. I’m not much of a classics reader. However, it grew on me. I even highlighted some of the sentences. It’s definitely not what I usually read. I do get why it is a classic though, especially in the time it came out. I’m had trouble picturing some of it in my head. But that’s why they made a Michael B. Jordan adaptation 🫦🙂‍↕️😚

Montag is the goat fr and his wife Millie is a hoe ass bitch that doesn’t deserve him. I bet his muscles are big. Reader men have big muscles and I am so sure of that. I love books about books though so this was cool.

This was not the worst book I read but definitely not the best either. I'm glad I read it because it's considered a classic but it was very weird.

Beautifully written, such clear phrases, confusion and emptiness, as well as the changes to and from a startling pace. Scary how relevant it seems right now. And so many quotes I want to go and find each source. I can see why this book and author have inspired so many to write. And made me feel so privileged to be able to read all the books on offer in the world.

I remember loving Fahrenheit 451 in High School -- It is one of the books I plan to reread soon.
