1984 by George Orwell.
7.8/10
I would recommend this book to my friends.
I would reread this book.
Really on the precipice of Brave New World and Catch-22. Everything is nothing.
This world gotta meet Slytherin.
I do see how NewSpeak ends up being just quacking. Just reverting to animals.
The book in the book is like this book because it's articulately written on things we already know.
I love a concept of bad being just as good as good.
