Animal Farm by George Orwell

I read Animal Farm by George Orwell. I loved this book. It was interesting because all of the characters in the book were animals, and they all had specific personalities. Also, this book had a lot of symbolism in it. The entire book was based on the Russian Revolution, with the animals acting as specific main players in this conflict (Lenin, Stalin). We follow these animals as they set out on a mission to take over their farm. I liked being able to connect the book to a real event that took place because the book itself was so fantastical that it was difficult to connect to it. Also, I liked researching the topic of the Russian Revolution and trying to guess which characters represented who. Overall, I would recommend this book to people who like allegorical novels and are willing to look deeper into the meaning of a book. This can be an easy read, but it can get complex if you try to look into the historical background of it. I loved this book!
