Summary: It's not to bad
Review: The book it self is ok but sometimes in gets a bit weird, ray bradbury did a good job at predicting "hearing seashells" when he wrote this book in 1950's

Summary: Perfect winter reading
Review: I'm in the process of re-reading 451. Montag's desparation to discover a fire within himself is such a timeless conflict. How many of us find ourselves mired in the everyday routine of a career - to come home and spend time with our "families" on the tv. In the end we're racing to escape with Montag. The most important aspect of this book is what you DO after you put it down and face life again. Cheers to Mr. Bradbury for giving us something to think about long after we're done reading his metaphoric prose.

Summary: To read this book would be a refreshing shower in reality
Review: I had to read this book for american literature class, before I had even opened the book , less even turned a page everyone was already pleading their case that it was garbage and that they didnt want anyhting to do with it . But I proceeded to read it anyway , after the first page I was glued . I coudlnt put it down , and even when i attempted to , this books flash of the future still sent shivers up my spine. It is an excellent book ,and now the kids in my class are reading it, they love it .It is definitley one of the best books Ive ever read . I think what makes it so appealing to me , is that it was written in the 1950's and look at the reality of what he originally wrote as fiction . AMAZING !!! Bravo !!!

Summary: Not worth reading
Review: This book has been raved about as a classic SF story for many years now, so I decided it had to be worth reading. How wrong I was! As with many so called "brilliant classics" the author gets a novel idea and then tries to run with it. Unfortunately, the story fizzles out completely towards the end and the full impact of the original message dies with it. I was very disappointed with this book and wonder how people rate books like this so highly. Don't bother reading it!

Summary: Thoroughly Disapointed
Review: This book is a is written about a futuristic civilization in which books are burned and anyone who is caught reading gets arrested (or worse). The main character is a "fireman" named Guy Montag who begins to realise that books are'nt really so bad, and he rebels. Firemen in this society don't put out fires, they burn the books. The storyline is slow and depressing. The book is rather boring, to put it politely. I believe that this is the only book that should be burned. DON'T BOTHER.

Summary: Simple but Perfect
Review: "Fahrenheit 451" is one of those rare books that goes straight to the heart of its issue, what we are doing to ourselves in this TV/Multimedia crazed society. So much more than a cry against censorship, this book is a rallying cry for us to wake up and see what is happening all around us. From the video walls to the relationships of children and parents, Bradbury is eerily prophetic in his predictions. I can see why some readers today would feel uncomfortable with this book; the truth not only hurts, but sometimes it can be downright damning.P.S. This is not a young adult book. The levels of symbolism and prophecy make this a read much more appropriate to an older, more mature audence.

Summary: Epitomized Science Fiction
Review: Anyone who thinks that this book is boring and has no value, should simply watch TV. Bradbury wonderfully paints the picture of a utopian society, in which the cosmopolitan population is "protected" from books which may spawn independent thought. Bradbury keeps it short and sweet, but gives enough detail to give the reader a clear picture. Easily one of the best science fiction novels of all time.

Summary: BBBBOOOORRRRIIIINNNNGGGG
Review: Please dont read this book for the good of humanity. If you read this, you will not only fall asleep but you will also just slap yourself in the head when you are finished. The idea behind society "dumbifying" (yes I understand that isn't a word)will never happen because a plethora of people still read books and buildings will NEVER become fire proff due to their being WOOD WHICH IS FLAMMABLE in houses. So then firemen would still have their same old job. BBBBBBBBBOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGG

Summary: The Brain washing of a society
Review: I WOULD FIRST OF ALL LIKE TO SAY THAT EVEARY ONE HOW PUT TWOS AND ONES AS COMENTS ARE IGNORENT BASTERED. THE MOTIVES OF EVERY CARECTER IN THIS BOOK IS CLEAR. CENCERSHIP HAS ALLREADY DESTOYED YOUR MIND IF YOU CAN NOT APPREACETE THIS BOOK. WE SHOULD ALL THANK BRADBURY FOR THIS GIFT HE HAS GIVEN US. THIS BOOK SHOULD BE WARRING TO EVARY ONE. I AM ONLY 14 AND I COULD UNDERSTAND THIS BOOK BETTER THAN MOST OF THE PEOPLE HERE THINK TO DO. I THINK SOME OF YOU ASSHOLES SHOULD TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT THIS BOOK AND SEE WHAT IT REALLY MEANS. GUY NONTAG IS THE IMAGE OF EVEARY WEEK AND VULERABLE FOOLTHAT WE HUMANS ARE. GUY REPRESENTS MAN. I HOPE TO GOD THAT WE NEVER GO AS LOW AS THIS SOCIETY IS. I HAVE A PROFOUND LOVE FOR GOOD LITATURE AND THIS IS WON OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ.

Summary: DONT READ THIS BOOK
Review: Ray Bradbury tries to write a bestseller in this boring novel. He keeps the audience in the book for about three pages, then everyone falls asleep. If he could do it again, I think he should have never written books in the first place.
