wow....this was the gayest book i've ever read..i've no clue what the ending was all about..so now he meets with some people who apparently are nerds and decide to form some sort of a club..and all they talk about is books and writers...so as they leave the city, the city gets flattened by a bomb...this is all i get from the ending...in the end, these nerds ended up smarter than the other people because they are the only ones saved...i think the writer was on crack when he was writing this book or under the influence of some kind of drug because the ending is stupid and non-understandable...the book should have been named the victory of the nerds rather than farenheight 451...in the end, there is no final conclusion to the story...the city just blows up....overall, the book was pretty boring and the boringness intensified as the book went on..
so now montag ends up watching his own house burn..and montag holds the flame shooter and kills beatty and other fire assistants along with the hound..i think the writer tried too hard to make montag look as the protagnist..he could have let montag being arrested because ofcourse one person fighting so many people mkaes it more unrealistic. this part of the story tells us that montag is very generous as he leaves faber's house so that faber does not fall into trouble..now he jumps into a river so that the hound loses his trail. first of all, the writer makes it clear that this world is so technoligically advance, i wonder why they haven't developed a hound which can work both in water and on land. secondly, even dogs can track people even if they go through a river, so i wonder why the heck would these people not use dogs...i am happy that i am almost done with this book..

all of a sudden, montag decides to open up about his book secret and leaks the secret to Millie which means that his love with books is no longer just a curiosity but a full time hobby..i would say it was a little crazy of montag to reveal his big book secret in front of the his wife's friends when he knew he could be in deep trouble..i think at this point montag's gone a little crazy and gone a bit too overboard with his new found love.wow, and the mechanichal hound is off to his house..looks like someone would get their ass kicked...all in all, the strongest charachter in the story seems to be clarisse who has influenced guy so much that he is ready to pursue his love for books than think about his well being...

wow....this is more boring than I thought it was....thanks guys for revealing the ending, you spoiled the whole fun of reading the book..haha just kidding, its bored the crap out of me anyways....this world seems more crazier than I thought...so now Millie, who had too much sleeping pills last night gets up next morning not remembering anything....its just like when you smoke weed, you don't remember anything and it takes over you...not that I've tried it...montag's wife is getting more stupid by every page...i can imagine her forgetting the pill one time but having an overdose of about 40 pills due to not remembering, it seems like she needs some medical help...when the mechanical hound growled at montag, it should have been a clear signal that montag had something to hide about. this shows that people were blindly supported and trusted by the society based on their profession. peoples perception was that a fireman cannot be a person hiding books as it is morally against his profession. i think people in this world are not allowed to have any imagination and cannot work against the supreme power(the government). this sounds like communism. the framework of the society is more or less like china. montag is kinda attracted to Clarisse since the book refers to him looking forward to meeting Clarisse. . .i guess clarisse is dead. her death is almost ignored and is not given the adequate attention the writer should have given..montag seems kinda disturbed but is in a state when you are so shocked that you feel like ignnoring the incident and pretend it never happened. then when montag responds to the call, he steals a book which kinda proves that clarisse has influenced montag's behavior. I am not too sure about the woman burning herself for books...i mean one would have to be really passionate about something that they can die for and books somehow doesen't strike as things to die for. although, i think the books have been used as a symbol to represent freedom....the relationship of guy and his wife doesen't seem very stable since guy hides the secret of the stolen books from his wife...

Insert Clever Title Here
K, I think I just figured out why he doesn't have any kids. His wife is nuts, why would he want to bring a child into that household? Also, he killed Beatty, I can't believe he killed Beatty and the book isn't even over yet. Where is he going to go after he burnt down his damn house? Also, is he going to get caught, there is a lot of information out on the fact that the authorities are looking for him. When he freaked out at Millie's crazy lady friends, it was a side of Montag I'd have never expected. I'm so excited to find out what happens!
The author ended the book to fast. So pretty much a bomb got dropped and the town he use to live in has been vanquished. All his problems are left behind and he has no purpose then to live and remember books. I dont like how the author made everthing go so smoothly at the end. Like would you really trust a bunch of bums sitting around a campfire. They offered him a drink and he just gulped it with no problem, if it was for me i would have suspicion that the drink was poisoned or something. Oh yea when they ate bacon i really would not eat some random piece of bacon from a bum like i was wondering how long could he have carried that piece for, but thats me.
Faber's agreement with meeting up with Montag didnt conclude. Did he die or did he meet up with Montag in St. Louis after the end of the book. I dislike how the author made it so we have to use our imagination to predict what happens afterwords.
