I don't know what I expected from this book but it delivered nothing. There were mostly dialogues, dialogues and dialogues. I would have preferred some more description. The story was rushed.
If you ask me to differentiate between characters, I would not be able to do it. All I knew about them was that they were part of the dead poets society, Neil liked acting etc. I didn't connect with the bonding of Mr. Keatings and the boys. It lacked emotions. I did like the last chapter though. It could have been impactful if the characters were fleshed out. 
I'll probably watch the movie.
