I wasn't required to read it for a class, but I had heard good things about it and picked it up from the library in high school. I thought it was an excellent story, and it was an eye-opener for me too. It's scary, like others have said, how real it's all becoming though. Even more scary is that there are so many people who have no idea what's really going on. It's good that people have to read it in school, that means the message is getting to a huge majority of people.
