Not a review:
I've been super-busy with school, and with finals coming up, so I've not been writing any reviews. However, I've been re-reading 1984 for a class, and I've come to realize how different my perception of it has changed from six years ago. I found it brilliant the first time, mostly taking in Winston Smith's hatred for Big Brother, mostly through his writing. Now that I'm re-reading it, I'm starting to realize the significance of the rebellion he and Julia enact through sex. It's funny how these things surface when you give something a second try. Anyway, if you've not read 1984, it's definitely something "everyone should read at least once," according to my high school librarian, because I think that everyone can take away at least one thing from reading it. It'll probably be a good novel to breeze through this winter break. Anyway, thanks for reading!
