Default Of mice and men...

Shall do Cait I borrowed it from the library last July and still haven't returned it. It's reached the stage where they've given up on sending letters.

I cried when I read it for the first time a few years ago.
Then I done it for GCSE.
Read it again not to long ago.
Love the film.

Fantastic book, I really liked it, the last two chapters are fantastic especially the second to last.

The film is quite good too, George is hot in the movie hehe. I foudn the ending for absupt in the movie really shocked me.

My favourite character is Curley's wife, such a complex make up to her, for example the difference between when we first see her, to her final scene, to the scene in Crooks' shed.
