1.0

Horny and boring. Those two words usually aren't used in conjunction, but they perfectly describe 1984. This book is so horny but lacks any sensuality or romance, so it really just feels lame and limp. Orwell clearly has never pleased a woman in his life. Would rate 0 if not for a handful of interesting concepts here and there, and I guess it was original for its time I suppose.
