Review: Beautifully Tragic - I can't believe I hadn't read this book yet, it feels like one of those books that everyone knows the plot of but for me... I went into this spoiler free. Let's just say I was not ready for how much I was going to love this book! I think it might be my new favorite ever. I have autism and OCD myself and while it's never stated what mental condition Lennie has I can absolutely relate to doing things that make no sense to anyone who doesn't have your condition. Obviously nothing to the degree Lennie does but sometimes I'll just wash my hands a couple extra times because I'm worried and end up being late to something. That combined with the generally stellar writing makes for an incredible book.
Review: Love - Steinbeck had a way of telling a love story like no other. Love isn't always romantic. Love is work. This love story is tender, heart-wrenching, and ultimately tragic, but a love story just the same. Brilliant.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Of Mice and Men
*by D***A on February 9, 2006*

The book I read was Of Mice and Men. It was written by John Steinbeck. The main conflict of this book was for these two men George and Lennie to make their dream of farming their own farm and where they could raise rabbits come true. They would travel from farm to farm and do work on different farms to make their living. In this book there were many things I liked and a few things I didn't like. The book was very exciting to read. It was so exciting because I was always wondering what was going to happen next and I didn't want to put the book down. I really felt like I was actually in the book. I felt this way because Steinbeck described everything so well, and I could picture every scene that happened. The main conflict interested me a lot. It interested me because there were many obstacles that Lennie and George had to face throughout the book and I just wanted to see if they could make their dream come true. I thought that the characters felt very real. They seemed real because Steinbeck gave the right amount of descriptions about each of them. The ending was very satisfying. It was a bit sad and I think it could have been better but if it ended differently the book wouldn't have been as good. The author John Steinbeck's writing style is unusual. The author's voice is a narrative style and it's written in the way the characters actually spoke. The characters talk like poor, uneducated people. The author uses vocabulary in an interesting way. He uses poor grammar and slang words to speak like the characters. The author uses a lot of dialog in this book. The two main characters speak to each other a lot. I think that the author is a very good writer because I could actually hear the voice of the characters. He describes things but he doesn't go overboard to make it boring. Compared to other books that I have read I would rate this book an eight out of ten. I give it this rating because it was a very good book and held my attention but there were a few parts he could have changed, like the ending. I recommend this book to any guy or girl. It is a very fast and good read. Overall this was one of the best books I have ever read. I would put this book in my top twenty favorite books. I've read another book by Steinbeck called The Pearl that I didn't really enjoy. I hope other books by Steinbeck are this god. Some other things that happened in this book was that Lennie wasn't very educated and George would always have to look out for him. Lennie loved to pet soft things. He would catch a mouse put it in his pocket and pet the mouse and squeeze it so hard that the mouse accidentally died. This would upset George a lot.
