Animal farm

Animal farm was an unbelievably good book. It was short but sweet. Its relation to communism was very amazing and very accurate. It was interesting because it wasn't pro capitalist, or communist. It said they there is little difference between the two.

My favorite part of the book is the ending. This might spoil the ending if you haven't read it so if you don't want to ruin the ending don't keep reading.

The ending, where it said that the pigs and humans were playing cards together (a capitalist game) and you couldnt tell the difference between the humans and the pigs. Doesn't that say it all.

The other thing i loved about the book was how the pigs kept changing the rules for their own gain.

4 legs good, 2 legs better

all animals are created equal, but some more equal then others

It was a fantastic book.

I couldn't agree with you more-it was definitely short and extremely sweet. My favorite part is also the end. At first I wasn't sure how Orwell was going to finish of the book but, the last line pulled it all together for me and left me content.

I put this book right up there with 1984 (maybe even past it). I may like it more because it's a lot simpler and it carries a lot of weight at the same time, something that is not easily done.
