Customer Reviews

Writing in book

I ordered good condition. My copy is written in, highlighted, and "bunny eared." I know its a gamble on services such as this but the evalution on condition needs to be better.

Poor quality

Pages folded and some crushed. Back cover has creases all over one more and it might break. Highlighter within. Wouldn't consider this a "good" copy

This book has writing in bright ink all in it. Several flags indicate each chapter. I don't consider

Just starting to read

Delivery ok , book not in the condition promised

I got this copy as very good, but when I got it and opened it.. there is writing all over inside , almost every page as if someone used it as a study book. It's very distracting. This to me is more of a good condition not very good. Very disappointed and not sure if I can read it with so much distracting writing.

Great Copy

My book came on time and in great condition! Just started the book but I heard it is a good read, can't wait to finish it. I love dystopian novels/movies.

Profound and entertaining!

The depth, especially at the end of the book gives both a terrifying and sober look at society. It's almost as though Huxley was writing the sequel to Dostoevsky's 'The Grand Inquisitor' from 'The Brothers Karamazov' in full form. Everyone should read this book at some point. At the same time, Huxley doesn't sacrifice the entertainment value for the deep concepts he's going into. The characters are all memorable in their own ways, and also reflect aspects of human nature which make them valuable to the substance matter, rather than just filler characters you'd find in a modern YA novel. Overall a great read!

Not Good

The text was excellent but the book itself was destroyed by the time i got it out of my mailbox. (fell apart)
