Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments Woohoo, was wondering what to read after Cress, forgot this was winning in the poll. Great voting everybody.


Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments Have you ever read 1984 ? I think you are supposed to read both these books and then compare them, different authors point of view of the future.


Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments Started this today, liking it so far, a really dark view of the future.

I have noticed that Tinka gave it one star, so probe best that she is on holiday. hehe


Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments It doesn't matter, they are two different versions of the future written at the same time...ish. 1984 was a fantastic book and so far brave new world is dark in other ways.


Tinka | 495 comments Read this one back in School and hated it lol
Maybe that was the 'you have to read it and write an exam effect' but I just couldn't get into the writing


Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments I am half way now and loving it. The first couple of chapters were written oddly, it seems to jumps about a bit too much to follow, but since then it has been great. Very sinister topic.


Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments Finished this, brilliant book, really well written and such a sinister view of the future. I do feel that we are heading towards this future which is pretty scary.

Anybody else going to give this book a go?

Jason people are always finding the future scarring, in my day it was nuclear war nowadays its global warming there is always something that scares people to death.


Jason (jasondenness) | 1426 comments It's what sells the papers.


Maggie the Muskoka Library Mouse (mcurry1990) Oh man. This is one my least favourite books of all time. I REALLY had to force myself through it.
