Prompt 1

After starting to read Fahrenheit 451, I am finding that it is unlike any other book I've read. I really like the way people are described in the book. In the beginning the main character, Guy Montag, runs across a girl on the street. The author goes into great description of the setting and the girl. This creates a very interesting and odd mood. The girls name is Clarisse, and she is verd odd. I like the way the author has her interact with Guy. She seems like her mind is constantly wondering, and that her ideas and thoughts are on another level then most. I also like what is revealed throughout their conversation. I find that Guy is a fireman, but in this age fireman don't put out fires, but they make them. He burns books and houses. What makes it even better is that when the girl talks about how fireman used to put out fires, Guy acts like it is a myth.

Something I didn't like about the chapter is how Guy's wife is introduced dead. He walks into the house to find her overdosed on pills. I wish I she wasn't introduced into the novel in this state.
