I didn't know they made a movie? show? based on it!? Does it have an ending... or does it end like the book?

Yes... charming, maybe? 🤔 Yeah, I'm still debating whether I liked it. Thankfully, it was short. 😅

Right!? We stopped in at the Mexican grocery behind the bookstore and grabbed snacks and drinks before heading back to the trees and pool to read our new books. It was kind of a perfect day.

Indeed. ❤️

I was as well. I reread it as an adult in an attempt to read more classics. Between it and The Jungle, I was thoroughly impressed and disappointed that I didn't get it in HS.

Grapes of Wrath. It's a classic and should be read and/or reread by all as a reminder of our humanity - or potential for the lack thereof.

I heard rumors once of a literary cruise... I think that could be fun. I would love to visit one of the booktowns. Like Hay-on-Wye, Wales or Montolieu, France... or Wigtown, Scotland during their literary festival. 😍

After I read my first Larson book (Splendid and the Vile), I binged all his others immediately. I adore his writing. I fully understand where your husband is at. 😅

I think maybe that's why I'm struggling... too close to home at the moment. I'm enjoying it, I think my brain is just seeking an escape from reality a bit more. 🤪
