  1. meggyweg recomenda I Am the Cheese por Robert Cormier, "Both these books are perfectly structured, all the plot parts fitting so seamlessly together that not even a knife blade could slip between them. The endings (ver mais) to each are as inevitable as the end of the world."
  2. SkinneeJay recomenda The Great Gatsby por F. Scott Fitzgerald, "Both are simple and sad stories. I find the endings pretty similar."

A touching short story of the less fortunate. The beginning is very warm-hearted, George and Lennie's dream about a farm of their own is attractive, concrete and has a lot of value in our modern "virtual" world. The ending grips you by the gut.

I'm glad I didn't have to read this at school. I wouldn't have liked it at all. It's full of little openings of deep themes, many of them about the complications of human relations and the use of power. I liked the play-like structure of the book with a clear scene separation and distinct scenery for each. The description of nature is very "calming".

I ought to digest this experience for a while and re-read the book shortly. ( )

Sometimes good people do bad things - because they don't know any better, or because they know they have to. ( )

I read this in ninth grade. Steinbeck is such great required reading. My mom still remembers when I read this book, that I came out of my room in tears when I was through. It was the first book that ever made me cry. The imagery and the characters have stuck with me ever since. ( )

Hated it. I really don't understand why he is such a celebrated author. ( )

This simple, beautifully written tale of friendship is one of my favorites. I can't read it often because it does make me cry. ( )
