Rating:  Summary: De Ratones a Hombres Review: Two men travel together looking for work. They meet some workers named Curley, Slim, Candy, Carlson, and Crooks who live in a ranch. Lenny and George have to solve many problems in their lives. Lenny has to go through many difficulties as he is mentally challenged. In this novel we can see how the people from low social classes are treated inferiorly. In this tragic novel only one gets out alive!

Rating:  Summary: Review of "of mice and Men" Review: "Of Mice and Men" writen by John Steinbeek is a book which narrates during the great depression era, the relationship of two men among the indifference of the world around them. Those are George -described as a small and quick and dark of face- and Lennie -a very strong and tall guy who has the mind of a young child. As they travel together, Lennie goes getting them into trables. That's why they had to move form Weed to Soledad. They only want to reach their dream, to get a own place where yo live, but Lennie's actions get him into a trable which has awful and irrepable consequences that affect not only himself and George but also other characters of the story. This is a story of loneliness, frienship, loyalty and corage.

Rating:  Summary: dream of future Review: George is smart and intellgent. Lennie is a man like a giant, but has a mind of child. Both of them have nothing in common, but they are best friends. Wherever George goes, Lennie follows. Lennie is always in trouble and George will have to clean up the mass. Together they have a dream for their future, but Lennie gets in trouble again that may stop them from succeeding their dream. I like this book very much, because I learn how important friendships are and that people can never predict what will happen in life. I will recommend this book to my friends, because I want them to know how important friendships are and how love can change people's lives.
Rating:  Summary: Derek's Thoughts on Of Mice and Men Review: Book Review In the book, Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, there was plenty of action for the avid reader. While reading the book, sometimes it was hard to follow what the character was trying to say. Because, the book was set in the early 1900's, they talked with a myriad amount of slang and was difficult to read. There was also some foul and offensive language. I liked the book because it was very descriptive with its actions. When the author was describing a situation I could picture it down to the last detail. When you can picture what you are reading it makes things more enjoyable. Each character had their own distinct personality that stuck with them throughout the entire book. One thing that I didn't like about the book was the ending. After the biggest event in the book it suddenly came to an end. I wish the author would have went a little further before bringing the book to a halt. This story is full of emotions. There are happy times and it also has its tragedies. The book was truly enjoyable to me. I would most certainly recommend Of Mice and Men to all mature audiences.
Rating:  Summary: A Must-Read Review: Because it is more "socially relevant", The Grapes of Wrath is the Steinbeck novel most often pushed on students - who promptly get turned-off by him. Don't let that happen to you. Of Mice and Men is his second best novel (the first being East of Eden) and it has everything that makes Steinbeck great. It is a short, fast read so you might as well give it a chance. The story itself is so archetypical as to be almost mythic - there is Lenny, the good-hearted, strong simpleton; George, his protector; Curly, the short, cruel, bully and his dangerous wife. Also, if you've ever seen a Looney Toon wherein a big, dumb character says something like, "Tell me about the rabbits, George" that is from this book.
Rating:  Summary: Touching! Review: I had to read "Of Mice and Men" for a lit. project in school, and I really was not looking forward to it. But as I read more and more into the book, it got better and better. I haven't read very many books in my life, but this has been the best so far. I loved everything about this book, the characters, the plot, the setting, and some of the themes. It had all Five elements to make a great story. From beginning to end, it seemed to keep getting better and better. I would suggest this book to everyone, you will love it!
Rating:  Summary: Just an All Around Great Book Review: Another one of those books that has been talked about by every critic out there so I probably can not add that much more. I can say that I usually read more action or non fiction yet this book is and will be one of my favorites. It is one of the very few books that stirred emotions in me. It is a book that demands to read many times.
Rating:  Summary: Of Mice and Men Review: This book showed me the value of friendship. It inspired me to make better friendships because of how strong Lennie's and George's was. What a great american classic!
