When I first read Fahrenheit 451, the thing I found most interesting is the fact that this used to be a required reading for high schoolers. It might still be in some / certain school districts but doesn’t seem to be for most schools around me.
Next was the fact that it used to be banned here in the US.

This happens to be my second book on the Holocaust / 2nd World War. Fairly early on you have an idea how the book will end, but still as I was reading the ending I could NOT believe it was happening. I was totally engrossed in it like I haven’t with too many books.
The other thing about the book – unlike most other books, this makes me NOT want to watch the movie. At least not right now. Maybe later, much later.
After I finished reading the book, I knew I could never watch the movie.

The best thing I like about Din Ho is that it doesn’t seem to have been “americanized” at all. Of course I am no authority on authentic Chinese Cuisine, but the few oriental friends that I have all seem to agree that their food is probably as authentic as it gets.
It’s best to go in a group so that you can order a variety of items and try them all family style.
