Summary: A great interesting and easy to read book!!!!!!!
Review: This book is very easy to read and understand. It is about two friends, George Milton and Lennie Small. They travel around everywhere. George takes care of Lennie because he is mentally retarted and has to keep up with all the wrong things that Lennie does, and would lead to Lennie's death at the end. I would like to write more, but I have to write a book report on this book.

Summary: Tehe sadest book I've read.
Review: This book is the reallity of life. People always take advantage of those who can't be self-suficient. however, people should help other people even if they don't always like it, just like george did.

Summary: Absolutly Incredible!!!!!!
Review: An incredible book filled with metaphors that eventhough is meant to take place during the depression, still applies to life right now. I highly recommend this book because of the quality John Steinbeck put into it.

Summary: A wonderful novel
Review: I had to read this book over the summer for English class, I thought it was great! Usually when I don't like the theme of the book I really can't get into it, but this one I really enjoyed. I am disapointed in the people who think the ending was "strange", if you do think that, read it over again try and figure out what motivated George to do what he did. Theeeeeen maybe you'll understand the ending better

Summary: Great book
Review: If you enjoyed this book and would like to see the movie, I recommend the 1939 version. It is very well done. Much better than the recent versions. Of Mice and Men is a classic in my eyes.

Summary: A great book that anyone can relate to..
Review: This story interested me.. It is small and concise.. while it easily gets its point across.. I think that Lenny represents the ignorance and naivity that exists in the world, while George represents the harsh but realistic voice of reason... people may take it as a simply depressing story.. but i suppose that you just have to be in a position where you can understand what the characters are going through.. Lenny knows not what he does.. his world is all he has ever known.. he has nothing but love for animals and his sadness is sincere when he kills them.. he cannot help his ignorance, but it remains there, glaring him in the face.. just as it glares each and everyone of us in the face every day.. George is your boss, or your teacher, or your parent, or authoritative figure who keeps you in line.. he is the one who claps his hands when you doze off to sleep in class.. he is the one who gives you that reality check when you begin to wander.. but at the same time, he is the most caring friend one could have.. this story is not a sad one.. it is rather one that shows the happiness of two friends who's life wouldnt be the same without each other.. the end.. which i wont reveal at this point.. is the most meaningful part of all.. some may call it sad.. or depressing.. but it isnt.. it is out of love alone that causes George to do what he does.. I would recommend this story to anyone with a little time on their hands.. it only took me an hour to read.. dont take the story so literally.. try to relate it to your life as i have done..
