The hate I had for this book will never overcome the love that was created. It wasn't till the very last meager sentence of the book that I understood the concept, and all the time I thought I wasted reading something dull and unexciting had become worth it in that very last page. To start off I'm just going to say that this book for most of it was utterly boring. Nothing really adventurous had happened. If it had ended differently I would have given it a completely terrible rating. Not only did this book make me literally fall asleep while reading only twenty pages, it was one of the best books I've ever read. The only thing that really kept me going was how the realization of George Orwell's prediction was right on point for our reality now. Every big statement in this book was so true about our society that I wouldn't anything that I had thought about the government previously. This shift in my moral thought made me think like this because a politicians job is to follow the law and what if the law is something that is a loop-hole that's really keeps everyone from being free? Is our country really the home of the free? It also became apparent to me that I so enclosed while reading this book, that I never once take a risk that could end in either some dreadful outcome or in one that I would never regret. One of the quotes I feel this connected most to was "freedom is slavery" because I have always looked at freedom as something that has kept my mind in a lingering though on no possibility on what to do which has propelled a one way perspective out of me. This was something that was made to be my parents and their parents and their parents before them because our nation has only taught one way in all of it's existence, that good is bad. Doing something that makes you feel adventurous but is a risk of something dangerous is something more than just a thought and never reality because making this reality is too dangerous for anyone to handle. It doesn't matter I believed before, only what i believe now because I can now change the outcome of all things in my future. This book not only changed me to think different but to do different and that I don't was to be timid about the world. Then too, I cannot always be so trusting in what I hear from the news because the the news get's it from inside sources and they get it from the government or government officials. So, not matter how much other people would want to burn this book and think it was a waste of their time, I have been inspired my it and would read it a thousand times over. The world is a dangerous place and we might as well make the most of it before it becomes dull. To George Orwell a man I will always admire, Kaya
