    This book is beautifully written and haunting. The story stays with you long after you finish reading it.

  2. Akash

    Struggled to finish this one. Found it somewhat dull, even considering the heavy themes.

  3. Sabhyata Yadava

    The story felt a bit dated. I had trouble connecting with the characters and their motivations.

  4. Danish Shafi

    I found this novel to be incredibly relevant to today’s society. A timeless exploration of morality.

  5. Brishti Hazra

    This is a powerful and thought-provoking book. Steinbeck’s writing is as sharp as ever. A must-read!

  6. Keshav Gupta

    Steinbeck’s last novel is a bit slow to start, but the ending packs a punch. Ethan’s struggle is relatable, even if his choices aren’t.

  7. Amit Mishra

    A classic for a reason. The themes are still relevant today, which is both impressive and depressing.

  8. Tushar Singh Gujar

    A good book to read. It depicts moral and social issue in the story very well.

  9. Gitansh Bhola

    I loved the exploration of morality in this book. The writing is superb, as always with Steinbeck. Highly recommend!

  10. Rodhsi Singhal

    Ethan’s downfall is hard to watch, but it makes for a compelling story. Definitely worth reading.

  11. Aaditya Jain

    While not Steinbeck’s best, it still offers valuable insights into the human condition. Read it!

  12. Shubham Tripathi

    A thought-provoking read, but I found the characters somewhat unlikeable. Still, Steinbeck’s writing is always masterful.

  13. Nishanta Saikia

    Steinbeck at his finest! The characters are complex and the story is captivating. Highly recommend.

  14. Tannu Choudhary

    A deeply moving story about the choices we make and the consequences we face. Excellent read!

  15. Samridh Shakya

    Interesting plot, though the pacing felt uneven. Enjoyable but not groundbreaking Steinbeck.

  16. Mannvit Sisodiya

    Not my favorite Steinbeck, but a worthwhile read nonetheless. It’s a good examination of morality.

  17. Allan Lepcha

    I struggled to connect with the protagonist. While the themes are strong, the execution felt a bit heavy-handed.
