Anthem was not as bad as a book that I originally thought. I loved the lessons that Anthem teaches us. Anthem has good character build up. any Rand does a good job at making each character unique in a world were everyone is supposed to be the same.
I did not like the way Anthem ended. All the sudden they just came upon a house and decided to stay and that was it. The plot seemed kind of dry to me. Nothing to exciting or unpredictable happened. I think the book would have been much better if it had a creative plot twist at the end.

You should read Anthem because it teaches good lessons, and morals. It shows that a world where everyone is equal is not ideal because there is no diversity. No spread of ideas.
