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! :)

One of the very few that I had to read at school but enjoyed anyway.

I noticed that a new book taking up the story of Manor Farm as a post-Brexit satire has been published just this week: Beasts of England. Obviously I don't expect it to be in the same league as Orwell, but I am actually intrigued to read this, and will get my hands on a copy soon.
