Really enjoyed: Nineteen Eighty-Four
Mixed feelings on Nineteen Eighty-Four, but I can see why people love it. The pacing stays moving and the chapters end on good beats. If you’re on the fence, try a sample — you’ll know quickly.

Mixed feelings: Nineteen Eighty-Four
⚠️ Spoilers: minor plot detail mentioned below. Nineteen Eighty-Four has a strong core idea — the execution mostly works. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. A couple of sections could have been trimmed without losing anything. There’s a specific turning point late in the book that changes the tone hard — that moment will make or break it for you. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.

Didn’t work for me: Nineteen Eighty-Four
Nineteen Eighty-Four is the kind of book that hooks you early if you like its vibe. The middle drags and repeats the same tension a bit too long. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.
