fahrenheit 451
my first impression is that this book deals with life and culture today which is why i decided to read it. this book is strongly opinionated. it starts with the burning of knowledge books showing a dystopia a world where people are silenced with fire a world without opinions. people don't think for themselves letting society do it for them this is what drew me in i wanted to know more about this world. i want to know how that kind of world can happen why it happens i can't conceive this as world where I would want to.

Melissa: I agree that this is a book with some interesting opinions. As you read, consider what comment Bradbury is trying to get across about our society through this novel.
Also, don't forget to edit your responses for punctuation and grammar. Proofread!
Keep reading and writing.
Hello Melissa. I had the same thought as you when I first looked at the book. I was trying to figure out how a world like that in Fahrenheit 451 could become so. It's still very difficult to comprehend how people could survive in a world without books.
