opinion about the book
I thought it was an interesting book, at first I didn't really know what the book was about. the further you went into it the more you get it. I personally understood it better after seeing the movie. it's exciting because you start with how it ends and then you wonder who put the gun in his mouth and throughout the book you find out more and more about what's going on, including who the narrator really is.
Motto
'You're constantly told how to behave, what to buy, how you should look, how you should think, what you should aspire to be.' This means that you are not really your own person because everyone expects something from you and tells you what to do.
