1984
So I must say that I really like 1984 but I'm kind of nervous about the ending because I can't see it being a good one. There just seems to be no way that it can end happily! :( I mean my hopes were completely crushed when Mr.Charrington turned out to be part of the thought police but I wasn't surprised about O'Brien being a bad person it's just too bad Winston didn't see it in the beginning when he first met him.

I agree with you, Dovile. I had a bad feeling about O'Brien from the beginning. I wish Winston was more careful about who he put his trust in. Although Mr. Charrington completely surprised me too. I was devastated when I read that. Mr. Charrington was one of the bad people. I can't believe he turned out to be bad.
ReplyDeleteAgreed I was really hoping he would be a good guy because it's just so unfair that there is like no good people at all in this book :(
