#JustFinished Julia, by Sandra Newman

This is a diificult book for me to review, as I had mixed feelings throughout the book. It was written as an update to 1984 told from the main female character's point of view.

Initially, I thought it was a great reimagining of the story. Newman makes Julia more intelligent than she was cast in 1984, which does make the character more interesting. As the book went on, Julia is so cynical

We do get some insight beyond London as well, which was a particularly welcome addition.

3/3
