A review by snowreo
Anthem by Ayn Rand
2.0
I genuinely feel as if I'm the only one who didn't enjoy this book? Obviously that's not the case but what can I say.
Don't get me wrong, this book is by no means poorly written; it has an excellent message and compelling characters. They learn about the truth of human identity and the importance in creative expression, as well as the strength found in individualism. Watching EQUALITY grow as a character was amazing.
My issue was just that I found myself getting very confused by the pronouns for a solid half of the book. It didn't click until I went back to reread. Additionally, I felt that it was very similar to Fahrenheit 451 and honestly, nothing compares to that book.
While this book wasn't bad, it wasn't my favorite either.
