I always take a book on any trips as there is always a lot of waiting around and I don't want to waste my time like that. On my trip to Lithuania this Monday, I brought with me Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.

 After years of hearing people refer to Brave New World, often compared to 1984, which I love, I decided to read it myself and find out just what all the commotion was about. I liked this book but I felt a tiny bit disappointed. Although the book brings up questions regarding totalitarianism,and freedom of thought, there is hardly any plot and is used as a vehicle to describe the world and the philosophy of the new society and it was hard to relate to the characters, however it still absolutely worth reading.
