@rebeccccca_W I found this interesting as well, the contrast between forced opinions and ideas through social media allows for a seemingly fresh breathe of air for Montag when talking to Faber as well as Clarisse in the beginning of the book.

#aplac2 When Faber tells Montag about the printing press I thought it coincidental that my European history class has mentioned the printing press and how it motivated many to write for the people, maybe with this Montag can cause a literary movement such as the renaissance

#aplac2 I wonder why Mildred is seemingly so out of touch with reality and involved with her electronics to the point where she is unable to function, yet she spends time with her friends whereas I figured she wouldn’t want much company if she was so unable to function.

#aplac2 I wonder why Bradbury chose to use the Bible instead of another book for Montag to show to the professor.

Clarisse*

#aplac2 Why is it that Montag felt a need to read a single line in a fairy tale book from one of the previous fires? Was it just based off of self-arbitrary or did it have to do with the creative, outgoing, and mysterious nature of Clarissa?

@Halleme15 In 1984 I noticed that one of Winston’s neighbors had been under suspicion of his own children, that neighbor is later found in jail alongside Winston, maybe this will be seen later in a similar context.

I found that the burning of the books and neighborly complaints could be related to events in Nazi Germany when they would burn books and use common civilians to give away others out of suspicion. They, like the nazis could be using this to gain power. #aplac2

#aplac2 I found it disturbingly odd that the other firemen had become “seemingly” used to the fact that many book owners attempted suicide, yet when it came down to the woman (pg 36-39) they seemed to be in silent shock of the woman’s death.
