Read the big read's 100

I love this book! Did not know too much about it before I started, and I was pleasantly surprised. Although the book had startling 1070 pages I felt a bit sad when I reached the last page. I wanted to know how the characters would live on. Luckily the author has written a sequel! :-)

Just finished George Orwell’s 1984.

Fascinating and timeless.
