I have now read 1984, brave new world and Fahrenheit 451 and all three books were very good in their own way. Fahrenheit like 1984 is pretty violent and oppressive, but on a smaller scale, in this book the story is focused on a few different characters in a small area.

I found it quite hard to get into the story as it takes a long time for things to be explained, once I was brought up to date I enjoyed the story.

The writing style is very interesting, it almost has a jazz free-flow style to it which makes you actually start reading faster and faster, I really enjoyed these bits as it makes things feel chaotic. Here is an example of what I mean...

"One, two, three, four, five, Clarisse, Mildred, uncle, fire, sleeping tablets, men, disposable tissue, coattails, blow, wad, flush"
