Fahrenheit 451

To start off, I really didn't dislike this book, but it did confuse me. I never really completely understand many of the characters motives such as Montag, the leader of the firemen, also Montag's wife and her friends.

AsI coninued to read I did come to certain conclusions that i was confused about, such as why they were burning the books in the first place. The book does take an interesting turn but the ending was sort of "Typical" and a "happy ending". With all of the things leading up to the town getting destroyed and him leaving in the nick of time, things were just a bit to set in place for everything to be solved within by the end of the novel.
I liked the way the book never got boring. There was always some sort of situation happening and even though it did somewhat confuse me at first, all together it kept the story going.
