7. Are there any settings in this novel that you have found to be beautiful? Or disturbing? Or memorable? Describe these settings and comment on why t

The setting that i remember the most is when the grandma is holding on to some books with her dear life until she is eventually burned to death along with the house that the firefighters were burning down to get rid of the books inside the house. This setting was memorable because it shows me how much people can love books and would even die for them (not literally but some might). It shows me how much importance books have within them although these days it seems like books don't really have a place in society. The grandma encouraged me because it would take a lot of bravery to do something like that. She probably did it also because she wanted someone to see what she was doing and that some like Montag would finally open their eyes and see the truth.
