alright, I'll add it to my tbr list!

It was really interesting to read especially in our current reality. There are a lot of "Futuristic" aspects that he refers to that are currently invented, but were not in the time of writing the book (Like television.) But with that in mind, he also touched on how those things can affect us negatively and kind of be a tool to drag us away from intelligence (for example, people spend hours scrolling on their phones instead of using that time to learn something, talk to people, read a book, etc.) It also has a lot of governmental aspects, how the government controls the people through that way but I don't want to spoil too much.

For me, I would say that all throughout the book it was cathartic. There were some really sad parts talking about people who haven't understood how important books were (if you read it you'll understand) and haven't been able to break out of the "spell." It was sad, but also eye opening.

I would say if you are into dystopian books that make you sad, rethink life and who we are as beings, this is a great book to read. I absolutely loved it.

Thank you! I'm looking forward to reading more by him

That's fine, as long as you're getting through it :)

Awesome! How are you liking it so far?

so much to read and so little time~

Thank you for the suggestions!

That sounds really cool, I'm actually about to start reading it

I've heard so much about it, I'll have to read it soon

Awesome, I will. Thanks!

That is so true

This was really interesting to read, sounds like I still have a lot to discover in Bradbury's work, I'm excited!

I hope you enjoy 451, It is such a good book, I think you will like it based off of your comment.

I'm also just starting to watch through the Simpsons (I know, late to the game.) I'm looking forward to the reference.

Interesting, I can see where you are coming from. The writing does kind of come across that way.

the plot also only refers to it a few times outright, I feel like it might have been cool if he went deeper on that.

You mean the "Afterward" section? I read that part, It was so good! It also cleared some details up that I was confused about

haha, I'll keep that in mind, thanks :)

You're right, It's really interesting how accurate his vision is becoming, TVs and Alexa and whatnot.

I will check out the book you mentioned, thanks for the suggestion!

such a good first line

I totally will, thank you for the recommendation!

Thank you! This was the first book that I've read by him so I'm excited to see what else he's written

Wait there's a film? I need to see that lol

That sounds so exciting, I'm glad you got the chance to do something like that!
