Fahrenheit 451 was a book I had to read for school, so I thought 'Why not review it?'. This book is about a fireman, Guy Montag, who is questioning his world that was never questioned. In this bleak, dystopian world, books are outlawed for creating thoughts that make us, humans, unhappy. The fireman burns these books.
This book is sci-fi and though I'm not usually interested in sci-fi, I had an enjoyable time reading this book. Some parts were terribly confusing, but, in those parts, Guy Montag was also having a doozy. The ending was also a minor disappointment because it ended as an open-ending, which I don't mind, and a lot of the questions went unanswered. In this book, I would want closure - an epilogue - such as, 'This person died!' or 'We saved the world.'.
Fahrenheit 451, a science fiction book about books being burned, is a good book to read if you are older (though don't let that stop you if you want to read it).
