It's been weeks since I began reading East of Eden by John Steinbeck and I've been seriously slacking on reading this book.

I've decided to sit down and knock out 150 pages today. Wish me luck!

I loved that book.

Easily, a top 5 for me. The way he describes his characters is so real, I can easily find living people like that.
