I know it is a known Classic but i liked Animal Farm so much i had to share. Before reading i thought that it would be similar to 1984 or Brave new world which it kind of is but its also very very different. Right from the Beginning i was hooked. I really love Orwells Books but this one is my favourite. I did not expect that. So for anyone that did not yet read it, i highly recomend it! :)

    When I was a kid, my grandfather would record cartoon movies from TV to VHS and when we visited I’d watch those. One of them was an adaptation of Animal Farm. Of course I was way too young to understand any deeper implications of the work, but it did leave a deep impression on me. It is not suitable viewing for young kids.

    As an adult I read the book and I really enjoyed it. I join OP in recommending it. It is also not a long book, so it’s not a serious time investment if you don’t happen to enjoy it.
