Dead Poets Society by N.H. Kleinbaum
3.0
emotional inspiring sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: N/A
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I would have given the book a 2-star-rating if it wasn't for the end. It did nearly manage to make me cry after all. I appreciated the message it was trying to send, and I love the theme, however it was executed poorly. The characters were one-dimensional. They were not really people, but there to fulfill a role. The misogyny was rampant, as was the classism. I both like and dislike this book.
