Ninteen Eighty-Four

by George Orwell

I've read this book 1 time and given it an average score of 4 (out of 4).

I first read this in high school and it definitely clicked with me more now. Honeslty the reason I wanted to read this had a lot to do with the increasingly authoritarian government and the "alternative facts" fiastco. In high school, this all seemed ridiculous and sci fi. Now, I'm not so sure. The scene about "the will of man will prevail" really got me thinking, and not in a great way.
