East of Eden by John Steinbeck

reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

An epic that has stood the test of time. I found it verbose at times, and some of the philosophical ramblings either boring or hard to follow or both. But overall I enjoyed it!
