Rating: Summary: Cannery Row By Chris Rowland Review: I thought the book Cannery Row was a ok book. It is realy not a book i would sit down and read for fun, but it wasn't that bad for a book i had to read in school.It has it's slow parts and it better parts. But I think every one should read it at least once.
Rating: Summary: The Cannery Row Review by Greg Marchion Review: I think that this book is a ok book, but definatly not the best book I have ever read. This book lack the action that I like to read about. Although it's still a good book for younger students to read.
Rating: Summary: Cannery Row Review Review: I think that the book Cannery Row is a decent book. Its not the best book that i have ever read but it is a good one. Cannery Row has a layed back kind of plot and the characters were very suspenseful. everything that happened could be foreshadowed. Doc was my favorite character. I liked him best because he was very layed back and was nice to everyone. He was always there when you needed a hand. I like how Steinbeck made the character Mack. Mack isnts the smartest guy butI believe that his morals were right. I like how Mack and the boys live life day by day and just try to have fun and not worry about anything. I think that this was an all around good book.
Rating: Summary: The mind of the disturbed Review: I read this book... I like Steinbeck as an author,however Cannery Row did not impress me in all the possible ways that it could... I find that this book had no major action in it... However that does not mean it had no psychological point of views shown to the reader through the eyes of the characters...
Rating: Summary: timo's review Review: I think the book is pretty good. I like most about it that steinbeck describes the characters very good . I don't like that every chapter has to do wth something else. for example from doc's 2nd surprise party to the gopher who trys to find a new home. i lke that the story is in realism and deals with real situations. while you read the book you kind of move into montery and see the daily life of the people and their feelings.timo
Rating: Summary: Cannery Row Review Review: I thought Cannery Row was alright. I like a book with more excitement. I like to read a book with suspense which I don't think Cannery Row had too much of. It had a different outlook on what we would call normal everyday life than we do. I think the characters in the book didn't care if they were doing what some normal person would do but what they thought was best. They got through life not how others wanted them to but how they wanted to themselves. They just wanted to have fun and deal with life day by day as it comes. I agree with their outlook on life and how they emotionally go about it, but I don't agree with the way they lived and their surroundings. I definetly would have tried to get out of there and find a nicer place to live. But I understand all they did and why they live how they live.
Rating: Summary: Cannery Row Review: I gave Cannery Row a three star raiting because I enjoyed reading the book more, the further I read into the book, but I found the book boring in the beginning. The book's characters are created well, and their lives are put together well with their personalities. There were however some chapters in the book that I felt were not really necessary for the main story of the book, and I would rather read a book without different short stories within it. I did like how I could get into the book to where I wondered what happened next to each character. I just enjoy reading love stories more. So this book didn't keep my interest that well all of the time.
Rating: Summary: cannery row review Review: i think this book was cool becuase they all get drunk and party and they arent very smart but the book lags because john stienbeck goes into a totally differnt story that has absolutly nothing to do with the main story like in chapter 14 i had a hard time paying attention to it the book really didnt have a big climax and i thought it could use more intensity.
Rating: Summary: Cannery Row review Review: I think that Cannery Row was a good book, the characters in it were funny and some of the things that happened to them i could relate to. I like how the book jumped around to all the different characters and had seperate chapters for some of them, it helped me picture them better.
Rating: Summary: Cannery Row Review: Cannary Row was a good book.. it was very descriptive, as if you were actually in Monterey CA. At times the book got a little hard to understand, but very interesting. I enjoyed the characters. I liked how they all had rough times and got through them all one way or another. I would reccomend this book. I liked the book more towards the ending, the beginning started off a little slow, other than that it is an overall good book!
