I have finally just finished 1984 by George Orwell, and with that, my last bingo square as well. \o/ Overall, I liked it, but found it too drawn out; the book section at the 60% mark especially killed the pacing for me. The appendix about Newspeak at the end was fascinating, though.
It’s amazing that even after books like 1984, Handmaid’s Tale, and Fahrenheit 451 are well known, that we still keep barreling head first into acting them out.
