'How long he stood he did not know, but there was a foolish and yet delicious sense of knowing himself as a animal come from the forest, drawn by the fire. He was a thing of brush and liquid eye, of fur and muzzle and hoof, he was a thing of horn and blood that would smell like autumn if you bled it out on the ground. He stood a long long time, listening to the warm crackle of the flames.' p. 146

Seemed like an apt time for a re-read of this book. I read it as a junior in high school, and I have a feeling that I'll grasp the political nuance a lot better this time around.

A future where books are banned and firemen burn them. Firefighter Guy Montag questions if what he‘s doing is right. It really dives into the psychological mindest of the lead character and what he‘s thinking. Great moments of dialogue and suspense.

mobill76 I've never thought of it as a political book. Maybe even anti-political. But politics has grown to encompass the question of who controls “the truth“, which F451 is very much about. But, I'm always glad to see one of my favorites in the conversation. 9mo

2.5/5 ⭐️ This was much stranger than I remembered it being when I last read it in middle school. Still a worthy read. Thanks for hosting Sarah! #randomclassics

TheAromaofBooks Thanks for reading with me!! I ended up with a lot of mixed feelings about this one. 11mo
