Penguin (Non-Classics), 1993
One of the classics of literature
+ Capturing + One of the most popular books in American Literature-and for good reason!
This is the first book by Steinbeck that I ever read and like many other people, it was required reading in my language arts class. It was so moving that some of the girls in the class were crying at the end.

Ballantine Books, 2001
After you get your teeth kicked in, then what?
+ Moments of brilliance + Excellent
I loved this book. Maybe I identify with Sam a little too much, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to relate quite so well if I hadn't been through a very similar break-up experience within the last year. Sure, she's crazy at first. I get that. It's hard to be rational and resilient ...
