A review by ranch2go
1984 by George Orwell

dark reflective tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes

5.0

Orwell is rolling around in his grave. He could not have been clearer in his warning yet this country has succumbed to the beginning of the end. I consider myself lucky to have completed my secondary education when I did, or else none of the most formative books to the development of my world view would have been allowed. I will never forget his words or how important they are, which is exactly why he is now on a banned book list.
