A review by anaha
1984 by George Orwell

challenging dark emotional sad tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

Lots of information dumps that requires a small amount of effort to digest, but otherwise a really thoughtful read. If you've heard of this book before, keep in mind it explores more themes to it than is usually discussed.
