Summary: A brilliant portrayal of human nature
Review: Of mice and men is a brilliant book. Steinbeck is a colourful writer and shows how some men can be compassionate to the weak (in this case weak in the mind!), others passive and worse still, others can be cruel. very powerful!
Rating:
Summary: Tough and Touching
Review: The wonderful narrative style that Steinbeck uses here helps to make the book even more brutal and touching. Unlike others, I feel that this book is not too short. In its brevity, Steinbeck has still effectively portrayed the difficulties of the life of ranch hands in the 1930s.The special relationship that Lennie and George share is especially heartwarming, and is the focal point of our compassion. Lennie's childlike innocence is also enduring and when we see how he has unknowingly killed Curly's wife, we cannot help but feel that George's decision to kill him instead of letting him face the wrath of the mob is the right one. That way he will still die preserving his innocence. All in all a deeply moving novel that is both heartwarming yet tough and brutal, like the life of a ranch hand.

Summary: It was a good book
Review: I think Of Mice and Men was written very well and really tells about the harsh times during the Great Derpression. It shows how strong two peoples freindship can really be. The ending was very sad though.
Rating:
Summary: Fabulous, Amazing, Awesome, and Powerful
Review: Nobody writes like Steinbeck. He has a simplistic easy to read style that is topped by none. This tale was short and fast paced and dealt with important societal issues. If you want to read about ignorance, hate, and amazing human kindness, buy this book. It actually made me cry at the end of it.
Rating:
Summary: Powerful and Strong
Review: This book shows that sometimes you have to do something that is hard to do, but in the end it will work out for the better. It shows that there are two types of people in the world, the compassionate one and the ignorant ones. It had many strong themes, and I loved it!

Summary: This Novel will touch you considerably
Review: Well gosh darn, this book touched the inner most chamber of my fat, old heart. The emotion put into the ending is more than breath taking. Just like Lennie's situation twards mice, George loved his freind to death...

Summary: Short, but not Sweet
Review: I found the book to be boring. I only read the book because I was forced to by my English Teacher. The book is extremely vulgar. The reason I gave the book one star is because that is as low as I could give it. If you have to Read it, I suggest getting something like the Coles Notes. This book was awful.

Summary: Good read for any age
Review: I read this book on vacation in Switzerland. My aunt bought it for me and I read it through that very same night. A hell of an involved book that makes demands of judgment on the reader. Interactive and engaging. Really questions your morals and "what you would have done."

Summary: If you didn't like the pearl,you won't like this one
Review: Of Mice and Men had a good begining and a good plot. It would have been a better book if Steinbeck had made it longer and put more effort into it. When you read his books you get the feeling that he started out with this great idea, and then got bored so he just finished the book real quick.
Rating:
Summary: Very good book
Review: I thought that this book was very good. I enjoyed every page. Forget what some of the other readers said about the book having "no plot". Obviously, they don't know what a plot is!
