Summary

'Guys like us， that work on ranches， are the loneliest guys in the world。 They got no family。 They don't belong no place。'

George and his large， simple-minded friend Lennie are drifters， following wherever work leads them。 Arriving in California's Salinas Valley， they get work on a ranch。 If they can just stay out of trouble， George promises Lennie， then one day they might be able to get some land of their own and settle down some place。 But kind-hearted， childlike Lennie is a victim of his own strength。 Seen by others as a threat， he finds it impossible to control his emotions。 And one day not even George will be able to save him from trouble。

Of Mice and Men is a tragic and moving story of friendship， loneliness and the dispossessed。

I gave this book a four out of five。 It is about to migrant workers moving around during the great depression。 As you went along the book and saw how good of a friend George was to Lenny it warms your heart。 But no matter where they go trouble follows especially when Curleys around。 Later to find out Lennies dream would not come true because George did something tragic。 I remember also reading this book back in my english classes in high school！

Dun boekje， maar wat een parel。Zeer mooi geschreven verhaal。 Prachtige taal。 Mooie beschrijvingen van de omgeving， zo zeer dat je het volledig voor je ziet en voelt。Echt de moeite waard。

Jarrod Reiter ，

This book is very sad and made me rethink ever reading again。 There are some points of animosity that may make this a concerning book to read。 Overall， great read。

Very confused and lost right now。 So much to be said about the writing， which I loved。 The plot was common and I enjoyed the normalization。

Goodness， I love this book。 I am always a huge fan of Steinbeck's concise writing。 I love Mice and Men for the inevitable lesson that ultimately， the only thing that we have control over is our choices and the way we treat others。 I have read this book many times in my life。 The first time， I remember being so upset at the lack of fairness and likely threw the book across the room。 Several readings later， I feel the same way but am compelled to examine what it is that I do to make life easier fo Goodness， I love this book。 I am always a huge fan of Steinbeck's concise writing。 I love Mice and Men for the inevitable lesson that ultimately， the only thing that we have control over is our choices and the way we treat others。 I have read this book many times in my life。 The first time， I remember being so upset at the lack of fairness and likely threw the book across the room。 Several readings later， I feel the same way but am compelled to examine what it is that I do to make life easier for others。 。。。more

I loved this book！ I loved how it accurately depicts what typical Middle American-Southern men think， behave， and speak。 It gives you this feeling of being there with the men。 It's not overly descriptive， however， it provides vivid imagery。 Many of the characters are likeable or at least understandable。 I loved this book！ I loved how it accurately depicts what typical Middle American-Southern men think， behave， and speak。 It gives you this feeling of being there with the men。 It's not overly descriptive， however， it provides vivid imagery。 Many of the characters are likeable or at least understandable。 。。。more

Loved the simplicity and the authenticity of both the characters， George and Lennie。

Kerstin Carlson ，

Of Mice and Men has always been one of my favorite books。 I love how authentic this book is on top of how descriptive it is。 You can visually picture the whole book as you read it。

This is what happens when misogynistic men write stories with female characters

Enjoyable and compact story occurring over a handful of scenes。 While I've never read this before and was not familiar with the story， I realise I'm familiar with the Looney Tunes parodies of Lennie。 It's strange having such a strong voice for a character before you even know them but it doesn't diminish the storytelling in any way。 Enjoyable and compact story occurring over a handful of scenes。 While I've never read this before and was not familiar with the story， I realise I'm familiar with the Looney Tunes parodies of Lennie。 It's strange having such a strong voice for a character before you even know them but it doesn't diminish the storytelling in any way。 。。。more

One sitting。 Beautiful experience。

Chloe Johnson ，

My all time favourite book！ It is not something I would normally read （not really my go to genre） but I just love the story and the journey of the main characters， George and Lenny。 I adore their relationship and the truthful yet hopeful way they approach the events， situations and new characters they encounter。 I have re-read this plenty of times and will continue to do so。
