CLIMAX<3

First Entry...
"THE TEMPERATURE AT WHICH BOOKS BURN" caught my eye on this book at first BUT.... it was really hard to understand and I didn't really much enjoy Ray Bradbury's writing style...
I enjoyed the climax part of this book the most! It was really exciting and I couldn't really stop reading because I wanted to find out what would happen next =]
When Mongtag finally realized that what Captain Beatty was doing was wrong, he turned against him. He didn't really care about what would others think about him suddenly becoming a "sinner." He made a decision to fight against everyone including his co-workers, captain, job, and his wife. He learned that books actually help to make an utopia, the better world. Everyone else was influenced by Captain Beatty that books are unuseful and worthless to their world and books leads to create bad minds to them. Captain Beatty used to enjoy books a lot but of tragedies that had happened in his life, he turned against the books and he was the leader of burning books. Montag was influenced by the next-door young neighbor girl Clarisse. He couldn't stand Captain Beatty anymore of abusing books, he fires at him and murders him. The murder of Captain Beatty is the key-climax of this book:)
My feelings of the climax of this book is that first, WAY TO GO MONTAG! Montag played a role both as a good and a bad character. When he was playing a role in a bad character who had a job of burning books and punishing he owners of the book, I didn't like the main charater much. However... when he turned against everything and protected books even committing a murder to his captain, I becmae to like him. Another, I thought that there needs to be someone like Montag in present day who is willing give up everything including his own self to become effective in saving the world. Our present world right now is so full of crimes and wrong things that God does not like. We need someone who is willing to save the world.
