A review by tmoolah
East of Eden by John Steinbeck

5.0

All great and precious things are lonely

Wow what a book, utterly engrossing from page one. Normally find myself flying through books that I’m enjoying but I really loved savouring every second of this.

Although the ending of part 3 almost stopped me in my tracks, I grew too attached to the boy that it genuinely hurt me. 1000 out of 5 stars
