  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

2.0

I really didn’t enjoy this book. I can appreciate its literary merits and contributions to the dystopian genre, but it was arduous to read and Orwell’s depiction of female characters was nauseating. It was also just kind of boring.
