Well, in English class we're reading George Orwell, and every time
the teacher puts on the audio book, I fall asleep. The book isn't that interesting to me but I would just like to know the feedback about it from others? We're at Chapter 8 and 9 of book two so far, for those who do know the book/have read it, it's when Winston and Julia have met with O'Brien who appears to be on "their side" but betrays them either way. Friggin' telescreens.
 
I've never read it and 'audio' book, when I was in English the class had to read it.
I still fell asleep.

Just got out of the class and fell asleep during the audio of chapter 9, the longest chapter in the book. Can't wait to be done with it though because I'm still passing the quizzes.
 
It was an excellent book. School always seem to fuck the best books up.

My freshman year we had read Animal Farm and that was a pretty effed up book in my opinion. I mean really, talking animals? Taking over a farm? (Yeah, yeah I know, animals talk in a lot of movies too)

At least 1984 has some kind of interest I guess, but having to read it for school makes it not as interesting. :/
