Your Average Oddball

For summer reading, I was assigned two books. One was Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card, and the other was Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury. I have finished Ender’s Game,which was a very exciting sci-fi novel that I highly recommend, but I am struggling with 451. I find it hard to understand, and… well… just plain weird. Has anyone else read this? And if so, tell me if it’s just me.
