How long is Fahrenheit 451?

I'm considering reading Fahrenheit 451, but I don't want to commit to a book that's too long. How long of a read is it? I'm also interested in hearing people's thoughts on the book.

Fahrenheit 451 is a novel by Ray Bradbury that is about a future society where books are outlawed and "firemen" burn any that are found. The novel has been translated into many languages and adapted for film and stage. It is not a particularly long read, coming in at around 100 pages in most editions.

Fahrenheit 451 is a very short book, only about 3 hours long. However, it is a very dense read, with a lot of information packed into a small space. This makes it a challenging, but rewarding, read.

If you're looking for something a little longer, I would recommend The Catcher in the Rye, which is about 10 hours long.
