Animal Farm
 
Woah. I just finished the book Animal Farm, by George Orwell. If you've read it, tell me what you thought of it. If not, READ IT!!

Man, I thought that book was gooood. Really good.

The basic storyline is a bunch of farm animals that boot out the farmer and create a communist-type government run by the pigs. CRAZY book, man.

Yea, and another good thing is that it is short. About 150 pages. And the type was like 12 point in my copy! That's HUGE! I read it soo fast...

O.o..How EVIL!! 666 posts! w00t!!

I've read it. It's pretty good, clever at least. It's not my usual taste in book, so I wouldn't go so far as to say it's brilliant. But it was good.

Everyone died in the end right. Just like I said....
Maybe I should read the book.

No nate, you liar. Nobody died at the end. The closest one to die at the end was a horse. and that wasn't near the end.

I just asked my mom (thats right, its 9 on a sat. night and I"m in the same room as my mom- I"m awsome.) and she's got it. I'm gana start reading it soon.

I think R6 can wait for communist pigs ;)

Well, I've already read the Hobbit. And LoTR. I am very much used to reading 500 page books with itty bitty 10 point font. Reading a book like animal farm with HUGE type and only 150~ pages was quite simple for me. Got the book Thursday from the library, finished it Today. Total reading time, about 3.5 hours.

Usually I tend to read the very long novels when I have alot of time on my hands. When in highschool, usually when we would have to choose a book to read for a grade, i'd always get the short ones, since I didnt have much time with all the clases.

Animal Farm is a parody on the Russian revolution and the set up of the USSR.

He's a weird author

DragonNick March 7th, 2004 06:25 PM

Re: Animal Farm
 
Yea, there is a movie of the book, or so I've heard. My sister said we saw it, but I don't remember. (weird)

But, if anyone wants a nice short read, go ahead and read this. It's good. Even better cuz it's short.

Orwell is a great author. 1984 was so good, and all the stuff he wrote about him in India or Indochina were also very good.

Re: Animal Farm
 
I've read animal farm, good book. It's like Facism on a much smaller scale.

Re: Animal Farm
 
1984 and Animal Farm are both great books, and they both definatly get you thinking after you've read them...
