Animal Farm Animal Farm is my first English novel. This is the first time that I have finished reading a English novel without using any reference work or dictionary. It is difficult to understand this book because there are many unknown words for me. What’s more, I can’t match the characters in the book with their names so that I have to write their names down and help me understand the novel. Luckily, Animal Farm is a novel, and I can pay more attention to what the story is going on than the meaning of the words. Slowly and arduously, I have finished reading this book 10 times longer than reading a Chinese novel. But I am content when I understand the author’s intention and contact the characters with the historical character of the Soviet Union. In general, Animal Farm is a great book , a very readable book. I’m enjoying spending time with this book.
