Anxious Face with sweat“What. A. Mindfuck. I get why it’s a classic. It had me hooked. It’s a twisted nightmare. I can’t tell if it’s the author, or the world in this book that hates women, but that’s also a major thing that I didn’t love. Some of the descriptions of women in this book are so vile and awful. So just be ready for that if you’re taking this on.”
“I did NOT expect to be this invested in the story. In the beginning I was a bit confused because of the heavy world building but then it eased up and I just flew through it! Some parts made my head hurt because of all the doublethink and thoughtcrime while some parts really hit me with the power of the statements. I don’t know how I expected the book to go since I went in quite blind but I was very pleasantly surprised by all of it. The writing felt strangely modern and the parallels to the present were at times uncanny. If you’re going to dive in to a classic I highly suggest this one!!”
