Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

Fahrenheit 451

By- Ray Bradbury


Stars-☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ½
Rating- MT-M

Fahrenheit 451 is a classic novel written by Ray Bradbury in the 1950s. In it he imagines a future where almost everything is controlled by the government, their society is in a constant atomic war, and the "fireman" set fires instead of stopping them. This book is a classic and was dramatic, suspenseful, and kept me on the edge of my seat. The characters were all very unique and developed, and the language he uses sets scenes (and destroys them) perfectly. All in all, it was a stunning and breathtaking read that will cause you to question society, politics, and life itself. I rated this Mature Teen to Mature not because of the content, but because of the language and difficult concepts explored in this work.
