 Hated this book when I read for a class .... but look at where we are now and where our government is aiming for us to be. Really never thought they could get away with as much as they have so far

 A great book. You will know what politics is all about and where the world is headed towards by reading this book. A book far ahead of its times.

 one of my all-time favorites, it is a depiction of a totalitarian state that uses technology to subdue and suppress the minds (and bodies) of it citizens - many echoes in modern life

 I read this in middle school. I didn't really care for it, but I remember the boys in my class all seemed to love it. Very science-fictiony, in a Star Trek kind of way. You know, like something out of the 60's, with Orwell trying to imagine how weird and depraved our society would be in 1984. I read this around 1977 or so. I gave it an extra star for originality, but I wouldn't read it again.
