Summary: "Such an ironic relationship between their society and ours"
Review: The sense of doom was so overwhelming as I slowly examined the book. Knowing that the book was written more than 30 years ago was even scarier.For, my boy, Ray to be so realistic in his views of the future gave me the hint of him owning some sort of time travel machine.I also appreciated his form of writing. It helped me to reach deeper, and deeper, and deeper, and deeper into my intelligence and really feel what the man was saying.

Summary: We are already living FH451
Review: I am writing an essay for my 8th grade AP English class about this book. This is definitely one of the more thought provoking books I have ever read in my 13 years on this earth. Considering that it was written nearly 30 years ago, it is quite remarkable in its prophecy. Just look at what's happening in this country today - countless numbers of mindless chatterboxes on every one of our 325 or so cable stations babbling on about Monica Lewinsky or OJ Simpson or George Bush's alleged cocaine use, or some other utterly senseless topic. And just look at all of these old fools in congress and the senate with nothing better to do than talking about Monica Lewinsky and preaching morality to all of us while they're all sleeping around on their own wives. I think the time is already here. There is no desire in this country for any meaningful ruminations of philosophy or history or the meaning of life. We have become that nation of vain, selfish dullards with no other goal in life except to make ourselves happy with our big screen tv sets and our armies of idiot babblers to tell us what to think. Mr. Bradbury, please write another book to help snap us back into real life.

Summary: A review from Mr. Entertainment Lover
Review: This book is powerful and interesting. It is the future and books are outlawed. Opinion isn't allowed and people are all brainless. In this book a man named Montag must go against the rules and break the law to do what he feels is right. It is indeed a spooky book about a dark future.

Summary: Younger Readers are Missing the Point!
Review: I first read this book in middle school, when my father made me read it. Since then I have read it a few more times and it has become one of my favorites. To the readers who complain of a lack of character depth- I think that this book was written like that on purpose, the main characters of this story are vauge because they are only place holders for us. They could be anyone of us in the future, Bradbury asks "Who are you going to be like?"

Summary: Profound insight to a life of censory not far from our own
Review: I am writing a report on Ray Bradbury for my Ninth grade AP English class. I read F 451 and felt that it was a story of great detail and a wonderful message. Anyone who loves the gift of literacy and great literature would love this book. If you don't appreciate literature, reading this book may change your mind. I realized that ideals and dreams are important, and the world is such a beautiful place when dreams are given to the less fortunate.

Review: this is an engrossing futuristic tale if a society where all printed material is banned. The inhabitants from this society all seem to be suffering from sensory deprivation.

Summary: eye-opening!
Review: I am writing a AP English report on Ray Bradbury, and I read F 451 to review it for part of the assignment. I felt that such distinguished writing could only come from Bradbury, and I am appalled at everyone's dead responses! How could Anyone who has some sort of admiration for literature slam this book in anyway??
