A review by ellasophiac
East of Eden by John Steinbeck

dark medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A

5.0

i’m a slut for steinbeck and this book i’ve been avoiding as it felt like a mammoth task has been very worth it. feelings of guilt and shame with so many sub plots that all beautifully link back to the bible. my catholic guilt has never been happier. xxx
