I didn’t always love reading it, but I’m glad I read it because of all that it made me think about and its impact on culture. Truly an educational novella.

The story itself was interesting and a good metaphor. That being said, Orwell's simple style really didn't do it for me. I know it's a choice motivated by the desire for everyone to be able to comprehend his works, but I like books with more beautiful complex writing. It took me so long to finish this because it just felt too boring at times. No other complaints.0
