Personally…the book as far as story is concerned, is not very good. It’s not something that you can make a movie out of. If made into a movie, people would not walk out. They would die in their chairs.
But what makes this book so great is the concept behind the boring story line. Although I am a slow reader (and slow in general), this book took me longer to finish than excepted. It is one of those books that you would get side tracked on because it would make you think. Think about our present society and its crazy issues. I was amazed how many of my own thoughts were described in this book. In the end I sided with the society. I find this interesting because I am usually naive towards societies in books where the theme is “me against the world.”
