Big Brother

The end of 1984 I thought was a lot more interesting than the beginning. I did not expect O'Brien to betray Winstong and Violet. Before Winston and Violet were turned in and sent to jail, they made a couple vows. One of the vows was that they would not deny eachothers love if they went to jail. In the end of the book they ended up denying eachother. I wish they wouldn't have but I feel in that type of situation where they were starving and pretty much dying, they almost had to. In the end Big Brother won, and Winston admitted that he loved Big Brother. I feel Winston only loved Big Brother because they pretty much brain washed him while he was in jail. Overall the book was okay, not really something that I would read for fun but the ending was good.

1984

The book I chose to read was 1984. I thought that the book was a little difficult to understand and boring in the beginning but slowly picked up as I read. Winston and the other characters were constantly being watched by Big Brother. I don't know how I would react if I was constantly being watched and listened to. I would have to worry all the time about what I was saying and who I was around, it would be difficult to live a happy life. I liked that fact that Winston and Violet tried to go against Big Brother, even though they failed.
