Any thoughts of the book 1984. Also Animal Farm.

I read Animal Farm. I really liked it. It freaked me out a little.

I think I need to read it again.

I read animal farm my senior year in high school, but I really don't remember anything about it. I never read 1984. Not much of a reader though, especially fiction.

I've read Animal Farm just for fun, didn't have to read it in school. I loved it. It's no children's book.

PrettyinPink55 · 08-31-2005, 01:09 AM

Ditto. We read Animal Farm my senior year in HS as well and I really don't remember anything about it. It had to be due to the fact we read that book in English TWO WEEKS BEFORE WE GRADUATED. Yeah, how incredibly lame is that?

We read Animal Farm in sophomore English. I also read it on my own about three years ago. We never read 1984 in school, but I read it on my own in early 2003. I loved both books.

I read Animal Farm in seventh grade. Or atleast I read the sparknotes...

InspectorExstead · 09-01-2005, 02:27 AM

I read both in eigth grade. Animal Farm freaked me out as well...just goes to show what animals can do. 1984...I was too young to get it the point of the book- I need to re-read it again.

I've read them. They were both good, but I liked Brave New World better.

I read Animal Farm freshman year...I thought it was good ona literal sense, but once you add all the symbolism...I'm pretty much lost. As for 1984, my english teacher is passing it out today.

I read Animal Farm for my summer reading project for English Honors before my freshman year in high school. It's allll about communism.

Mrs. Ducky · 09-03-2005, 01:20 PM

I'll be reading both of them this year in Honors English.

MsOrange · 09-03-2005, 01:56 PM
