Review: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Yes, the characters are too black and white, yes the plot isn't much of a plot, and yes, the World War II cannot be felt, however, this a perfect book when you're home alone and sick in bed :)
And why can we not like perfect characters?! I absolutely love letters and this book gave me so many of them.

Review: Brave New World

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In this Brave New World, society wants one to be happy. Happy by any means, by conditioning one to be satisfied by menial jobs, easy sex, meaningless lives... In case one doesn't agree, he/she is removed from society or ridiculed till they commit suicide... not quite different from the world today.

Makes me wonder what people sent away do? I would like to think it's something like 'Atlas Shrugged'.
