My biggest complaint was how thin the allegory was. Like, Orwell didn’t have to use animal farms at all, it read like a history lesson for most parts. I felt between chapter 3 to chapter 8 were mostly just boring and pigs Doing a power capture slowly. Did chapter 3 to 8 help create the impact of chapter 9 and 10? Absolutely. Could they have been done better? I think so, it didn’t have to be read like a history lesson.


Yeah, I think I know what you mean. I read 1984 before Animal Farm, and it also didn’t turn out how I expected (still good though). So I was more open about what to expect for Animal Farm I think.
