Welcome, readers! Our February read is **_1984 by George Orwell._** In 1984, George Orwell imagines a world where the government watches everyone, rewrites reality, and punishes even private thoughts. Winston Smith dares to question this system, believing that truth and love might still exist. His rebellion draws him into a chilling struggle against a power that knows him better than he knows himself. The novel leaves readers asking whether freedom is possible when reality itself can be controlled. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

You can find links to that address below. 🔗 [Apple Maps](https://maps.apple/p/u4uR0vxh~_c60B) 🔗 [Google Maps](https://maps.app.goo.gl/K37216FrEJd3qiRp8) The validation gives you free parking after you have spent an hour inside the restaurant. You will need to get your parking slip validated from the restaurant by asking them after an hour has passed. We hope to see you there!
