A Goodreads user asked this question about Fahrenheit 451:
Did anyone else think this book was INCREDIBLY weird? It's not bad, but it's too strange to be a book I like.

It goes along with 1984 and Brave New World. Please do not get lost in writing style or how "weird" you think it might be. The point is this is what we are becoming as a society. In 1984 they talk about the shrinking of the vocabulary available to society. I never thought I would see this happen, but then we went from formal letters when email first became available, to messages, informal texting, and now emojis. They no longer teach cursive writing people. I kindly ask everyone to wake up. (less)
