I read 1984 (as an adult) and really enjoyed it, I’m not sure enjoyed is the right word, as it was also pretty sad. I can highly recommend the book. Animal farm I read for English class when I was 15 (in the Netherlands), didn’t fully get it, and should probably read it again, knowing its meaning.
451ºF is the temperatur when Paper begins to burn.
Apparently this is not actually true, paper will burn at much lower temperatures than that which when you think about it is kind of obvious, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to set paper on fire with a lit match, you would need an accelerant, as wood starts burning at 400F.
I’ve read most of them and they’re mostly great, only one I read I didn’t really like was Catcher in the Rye. Fahrenheit 451 is a classic, I’ve read it of my own free will.
No offense dude but you kind of just sound like a teenager going “reading is dumb”.
Just so because something is a classic doesn’t mean it’s good or that most people have read them, it just means that people have decided that it’s an important work.

Meanwhile banned Books in Schools (Dangerous stuff)
I’m understanding more and more how a stupid pedo_asshole can be voted as president by so much people.
Has anyone actually read any of those books?
I feel like pretty much everyone who reads them is only doing so out of spite. I don’t think anyone has ever really wanted to read Fahrenheit 451.

I saw also the movie, also a movie with similar content, Equilibrium. 451ºF is the temperatur when Paper begins to burn.

The title is refered to the temperature needed to burn books. “Who burn books, soon also burn people”.
