Rating:  Summary: Brilliant, thoughtful book Review: Stienbeck's Of Mice and Men, was a great, disturbing read. You immeditaly love innocent Lennie and kind, hardworking George. But this book has a dark, sad message. People like Lennie and George truly never win, no matter how hard they try. And, for those who asked, the reason George killed Lennie was that Lennie couldn't function in society. George had tried to take care of him, but they always ended up on the run. If they got away this time, soon they would be on the run again. So George did the kindest thing possible. Rather than let Curley and the men kill Lennie while he was frightened and upset, George was with Lennie in his favoriter place, talking about their wonderful dream, their own private Eden. He made Lennie feel happy and safe. And then George, rather than letting Lennie suffer, took up his suffering and killed him quickly and painlessly. George cared for Lennie so much that he would rather suffer than have Lennie suffer. It is obvious that George loves Lennie, despite "giving him hell", and wants to protect him. When he can't, he makes sure no one will hurt Lennie. Sad, beautiful book is too great for a mere review to describe. Also, see the movie with Gary Sinise and John Malkovich, and you'll cry even harder - they perfectly capture their characters!
Rating:  Summary: I'm writing a review of mice and men Review: In this book I like the way the characters express their feelings. I also like the way Steinbeck describes the characters. You can always visualize them in your head.
Rating:  Summary: What I Thought Of "Of Mice And Men" Review: "Of Mice And Men" is a terrific book! Especially at the end when Lennie gets shot. I just love the foreshadowing, for example, when Lennie kills the mouse, then the puppy, it leads you to beleive that he could maybe kill another thing, and then Curley's wife walks in. I also love the awkward pair,Lennie, the slow, large man, and George, the smarter, smaller guy. Altogether, I enjoyed reading this book and I will probably read it again! I give it four stars because I just couldn't put it down!
Rating:  Summary: the book talks about loneliness Review: This book talks about loneliness and how people dreamed about having their own land, because it was hard to have a land in that time because of the Great Deppression the United States passed through.
Rating:  Summary: We are doing a summary of Of Mice And Men. Review: Of Mice And Men is a very good book. It has so many different characters and a surprising ending.
Rating:  Summary: what I thought about Of Mice and Men Review: I think the story is action packed. Where Lennie killed his puppy and Curley's wife, George killed Lennie, and Carlson killed Candy's dog. All that made me excited. I didn't really like the part where George killed Lennie. They could have run off to a different state or something. Above all I think the story was great.

Rating:  Summary: It was a very riviting book. I could not put it down. Review: I loved of Mice and Men. The relationship between George and Lennie has a very special meaning. The twists and turns of the story kept me on the edge of my seat. I couldn't put it down.
Rating:  Summary: Overall it is a good book Review: "OF MICE AND MEN"WRITTEN BY JOHN S.IS OVERALL A GREAT BOOK. IT HAD A FEW SAD POINTS LIKE WHEN THE PUPPY DIED AND WHEN LENNIE DIED. IT MADE YOU FEEL A WHOLE LOT BETTER AT THE FUNNY PARTS LIKE WHEN CURLEY'S WIFE WAS TRYING TO TALK TO LENNIE AND HE WAS OFF IN HIS OWN WORLD.
