Review: 1984 - George Orwell

I enjoyed this book, mostly for the surprises and intensity. However, I became so frustrated with the characters. Still I guess if a book can make you feel something at all that is a good thing. I thought that the idea was a great take on a now widely popular theme of a future world controlled by a select few leaders in which the people are repressed, but brain washed into thinking its right. What's good about this one are the twists on that now familiar story. Though 1984 has come and gone, this story is still intriguing and advanced in some ways even now. Readers if you enjoy an intense book with a little bit of beautiful, yet sinful intrigue as well as shocking twists, this is definitely for you.
