Book #6: The Pearl by John Steinbeck

The Pearl - John Steinbeck

I read this because a student of mine is reading it, and I wanted to make sure that I knew the story. I really hated Steinbeck in school - I didn’t like his long sentences, and his focus on seemingly mundane things… and I just wasn’t really ready for him back in 10th grade. BUT! I really enjoyed The Pearl. I read it in one night (at 90 pages, it really only took about an hour) and, despite being fairly predictable, the book really pleased me.  A good, fast read.
