Question #2

So the first book we decided to read is The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck.  Most of you have already read (or will read in school if you haven't yet) stories by Steinbeck such as Of Mice and Men and The Pearl.  What do you think of Steinbeck's stories?  He won the Nobel Prize in 1962.  Why do you think we still read his books decades after his death? 

Question #1

What was the best NEW book you've read so far in 2011?  Tell us a little about it.  For example, I'd have to say the best book I've read for the first time so far this year is The Book Thief.  It's about WWII but it is told in a much different way than other books I've read on the subject.  It's an amazing book!  Feel free to comment below on my book and/or a book of your own
