Miya reviewed Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell
Did not satisfy my expectations, but it made for quite a pleasant week-end read.
4 stars
For science fiction the book was too dull, there was nothing new or unique. The second part was -- as Asimov put it, -- rather "laughable." The first and last part were enticing, though the style of writing probably made it seem more interesting than it actually was. All over, I don't think it was a bad book, but after all the hype around it I expected much better.
