Sucks to your ass-mar!
Yet another great book I supposedly read in high school but only seemed to remember small fragments of. These details include character names and setting, but significant events I conveniently forgot somewhere through the years. As much as I've heard about this novel the shocking brutality of it wasn't diminished.

Mi è difficile recensire questo libro perché la trama è molto originale ma allo stesso tempo è noioso, mancano le caratterizzazioni di molti personaggi e la scrittura non è omogenea. Alcune volte i periodi sono lunghi e sofisticati altre brevi e poveri di contenuto.
Mi ricorda la fattoria degli animali, il quale però ho trovato sublime in tutto.
Rimane comunque un classico da leggere e da far leggere agli studenti.

Hated the characters, hated the writing, it was clunky. Hated that one of the characters name was Piggy. Hated Jack, hated how immature they all were.
I was ok until about the 40% mark and then I was finding that I was forcing myself to read it and at that point I knew it was time to stop.
