The Missing Sister: The spellbinding penultimate novel in the Seven Sisters series
Fahrenheit 451 really left a strong impression on me. It’s set in a future where books are banned and “firemen” actually burn them instead of putting out fires. It sounds extreme, but the more you read, the more you realize it doesn’t feel that unrea...
