My friend's sister let me borrow The Grapes of Wrath. It's not my niche. j-whitt987 Send a noteboard - 11/11/2010 01:41:11 PM
I usually read sci-fi and fantasy. It's been years since I stepped out of that comfort zone. I want to try it because my friend recommended it and he also reads sci-fi and fantasy. I just don't think that a Depression Era story will keep my attention. Is it worth the try? I know it's a freakin' classic and I'm like the last person on Earth to read it.
Kirk: Spock, you want to know something? Everybody’s human.
Spock: I find that remark…insulting.

I mentioned it as one of the books I hate, so I'm not exactly unbiased. Tom - 11/11/2010 02:54:03 PM 773 Views
I've really dug Steinbeck up to this point. Panorphaeon - 12/11/2010 03:21:17 AM 741 Views

I'm jumping on the bandwagon as well. I would go for something else instead. *NM* RandAllThor - 11/11/2010 09:49:55 PM 330 Views
