The concepts explored in this book are definitely interesting, but i found the execution a bit lacking. I didn't particularly enjoy the writing style and found important dialogues (e.g. Beatty's explanation for book burning) to be a bit bland. This book has a great reputation, so I guess I expected a bit more. Not a bad read tho!
