dark mysterious tense

• Strong character development? Yes

5.0

I'M BEING WATCHED
AND WE ARE ALL SO EASILY INFLUENCED
OH NO
ARE WE EVEN SENTIENT? HOW CAN SENTIENCE BE SO EASILY AND LOGICALLY TAKEN FROM US?
WHAT DO WE CONTROL, REALLY?
THE GOVERNMENT WILL TURN US ALL INTO SLAVES. THERE IS NO HOPE FOR US.
(As for how good is the book- it's George Orwell. Does he really need my voice, as well as a bazillion others, talking about how glorious his work is? Yes? Well he’s great.)
