Fahrenheit 451

Do you like to read books where u don't know what is going to happen next? If so, then I have got the perfect book for you. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbary is a science fiction novel where there is a lot of mystery and you never know what is going to happen next.

In the book Fahrenheit 451, the fire man in this town start fires instead of putting them out. The main character of this story Guy Montag is a fireman. These fireman burn houses that have books in them because books are outlawed in this town. But Guy is different than the other fireman because instead of burning all the book sometimes he takes a couple out wit him before burning the house. The important part is that Guy never tell the other fireman that he has these books hidden in his house.

Near the end Guy thinks that the fire chief has found out that he has the books so he starts to freak out about it. He tell his wife about it because he never told her that he had book before. He remembers that he once met a retired English professor named Faber sitting in a park, and he decides that this man might be able to help him understand what he reads. He hands some of the books over to his fire chief because she knows he has some but she gets a call and the call is from Guy Montag's own house to find out that his own wife had betrayed him. So his fire chief makes him burn down his own house than she puts him under arrest but while she is talking to him he turns his flame thrower upon his fire chief and burns her.

In conclusion, I would recommend this book to high schoolers that like suspense novels about rebellion . Also high schoolers would enjoy this book because theres a lot of action in it and the book portrays a lot about what can happen in the future if the human race isn't careful. So if u are interested about what u have heard u should go read Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury because it is a very good book and is interesting.
