One of the few classics I will voluntarily read. First, I want to say that I DESPISE MILDRED. Next, for being shorter than most books I read, I really feel like there is more story packed into this than some 400+ page books I have read. It was a bit hard for me to follow at times, but I'm not great at that to begin with. I loved Guy Montag's development and how you witness him be disgusted and distraught by the world around him. Parts of this story are eerily true years later (lookin' at you Parlor Family).
