1. How did you experience the book? It's not always helpful to talk about whether or not you liked the book, but rather how you felt as you were reading it? Were you pulled effortlessly into the book...or did you have difficulty getting into it? Why? Overall, I enjoyed the book. Part of the time, though, Steinbeck would start thinking back in the past and I thought it slowed the process of his adventure as I was reading it. I also enjoyed Charley as his traveling buddy. It added a humorous side to the story.
2. Were you happy about your book choice? Why or why not? Yes, because I liked Steinbeck's way of writing in the past and i thought this book would be a good choice.
3. Which place discussed in the book did you find the most intriguing? Why do you think that was the case? I think that the most intriguing place that my character went to was in Oregon and camping out in the redwood trees. I think this because I have never seen trees so big.
4. What central ideas might the author be exploring-the novel's themes? Consider ideas about the nature of love, the requirements of goodness, the meaning of justice, the burden of the past...basic human issues that are at stake in the book.The author wanted to experience the real America. He wanted to experience the various cultures of the different parts of America. He also wanted to know how different people thought and how they really lived.
