has anyone read it? i just finished it yesterday. we're reading it in school

aww just once i would like too see someone who didn't read this for school....neways it is a very good book what did you think of it?

im going to get around to it one day.
i never read it in high school and i'd like to.

oh its really good i recommend it...

i think i'd like it a little better if we didnt have to read it in school but yeah i thought the ending was kinda weird. i didnt like it that much...but my teacher gave us this realy hard quiz and like no one did good on it (i got a 76 so i was pretty pissed) and so now shes making us take extensive notes on it and i just passed in the notes i had to take on it for chapter four and it took me three hours to do it.

yeah i love that book...i now recommend it to all my friends...the ending made me really sad...i couldn't believe it but at the same time i knew it would be for the best that it ended that way...

on the quiz one of the questions was "what was curley's wife's name?" and i totallt freaked out cuz she had no name so i left it blank

really she had no name????maybe thats why i don't remmeber it....

I read Of Mice and Men in seventh grade, and when my family and i traveled to california, i insisted that we visit Cannery Row so that i could see the spot John Steinbeck wrote about in his book. I really enjoy John Steinbeck's books because he write about topics that other people don't usually write about. they give you an insight on poverty in the 1900's.

hah yeh, curly's wife was just called Curley's wife..i'm pretty sure.

i had to read it for school..yes, but the first time i read it wasn't for school. my sister had too and i was in 7th grade or something and i took it and read it in a day. then a few years later, i had to read it again for school.

i loved the book. very sad, but yeah, i think the ending was for the best too.
the movie was good as well!

Yeah, I really liked this book. It was good haha
:]

I didnt read it because of school.... my dad told me it was good... so thats why i read it.... it was ok... kinda sad at the end.... but it was good.

oh i see...i had to read it for school but like a week before that my dad told me to read it....so i was excited when we read it for school

Yeah..... well one of the reasons my dad told me to read it was because he said "If you were in school in the states they would have you reading this book and its good so you should read it".... so pretty much i guess i did read it because of school XD And he also thinks that I dont read anything besides Harry Potter.... but he keeps on saying that after each book I read besides Harry Potter.... lol XD

lol thats funny....yeah this book is one that everyone should read just becuse it is an american classic
