A review by chrisleesounds
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley

2.0

Let me start by saying I love dystopian, futuristic, or sci-fi books. I’m also purposely trying to read some “classics” and this fulfills both of those requirements. However, I found this book to be truly awful. Even after overlooking the racial insensitivity since it was written in the 1930s, this book really had very few redeeming qualities. The only element that kept it from being a one star rating was that there are some nice philosophical dialogues in places that got my attention. Otherwise, it was an enormous disappointment. There are just so many better sci-if novels written since this book that it ended up being a huge waste of time. I will actively steer people clear of this book.
