This book was beautiful but painful to read even from the start. Just wow. Read it in about three hours in one sitting. And it's my first Steinback ever. I adored his way of descriptive writing as well. Might read more of his works not sooner or later

I read this book because my tutor told me to, and honestly? The writing was good, the characters were interesting, and the story had a nice pace. I overall enjoyed reading it. Why did I remove two stars, then, you might ask? The animal deaths. The HUMAN deaths. It made me sick to my stomach, and I'm used to reading books with gore and violence (but usually in a fantasy setting). It was too much.
