SamAnne Well, oof. 3d

Crinoline_Laphroaig I'm a little bit behind. Interested in this chapter because now days we proudly call ourselves Okies. 2d

ElizaMarie This was a rough chapter! Also Ma is so strong- the amount to trauma this woman experiences and then to take care of everyone! Wow 14h

Bklover I can‘t even imagine this life. On top of all the hardships they also deal with relentless heat, bugs bugs bugs, and nowhere to bathe. 😳🥺. These people were tough!! 4d

TheAromaofBooks This book is so sad but the writing is so good! 3d

Bookwormjillk Yeah pee mud isn‘t covered by my health insurance. Loved that Tom told Willy to wash his face. (edited) 5d

Bklover This chapter was disturbing. Tom raping a girl and then saying he‘d of paid her but he only has five dollars. The pee mud. Swerving so he would hit the rabbit. I‘m not liking Tom. (edited) 5d

Bklover You‘d think with all that extra coming in from the truck drivers Mae could give the guy a loaf of bread. I know she was ok with the boys, but I still wouldn‘t call her generous. Thank goodness Al is there. Does anyone else think A-I when they see the name Al? Every time. 6d

Bklover Oh, and if you didn‘t know- IITYWYBAD is “ If I tell you will you buy another drink”. I didn‘t know. 6d

BarbaraJean After all that with the bread, then the boys and the candy! 🥹 @Bklover I‘m with you on the name “Al.” Every single time! I used A-I (not Al) to look up the acronym because I had no idea. 😆 6d

Bookwormjillk @Bklover yes on the AI 6d

SamAnne My favorite chapter so far! 6d

TheAromaofBooks Despite Mae being kind of stingy with the bread, this chapter overall felt like a look on the more hopeful side of things - I loved the way the truckers covered all the expenses when they left. 6d

lil1inblue @SamAnne Mine too! Also, based on past interactions with truckers at vatious jobs, I can confirm that they're so kind. 6d

Bookwormjillk Whenever they have conversations like that I think of Fival Goes West “There are no cats in America and the streets are made of cheese.” Sad chapter but I‘m glad they teamed up with the other family. That seems smart. 1w

BarkingMadRead @bookwormjillk it‘s a genius plan, i hope it works out 1w

ElizaMarie Glad you highlighted that quote. It spoke to me too ;) 1w

SamAnne Lord this chapter. 1w

lil1inblue @Bookwormjillk I loved the kindness and community spirit with the other family so much. It made the chapter easier to process. 1w

lil1inblue You are on point with the quotes you're picking. It's always something I highlighted, too. #greatminds 😘🤌🏻 1w

lauraisntwilder The dog and Grampa in the same chapter and it's only their first day on the road. Ouch. 1w

Bklover Well, that was awful. Poor dog. Poor Granpa. Oh, and they make me nervous every time they talk about their orange trees and little white house they‘re planning on. This doesn‘t seem like a HEA book, at least so far! 1w

BarbaraJean This quote stood out to me, too—and the next part: “If I go ahead on all of ‘em, it‘s too much.” Wise words from Ma. Also: I was all worried about the turtle and now this. 👴🏻🐶😭 1w

lil1inblue I'm slightly annoyed that the pattern of one #wrathsnack and then one Joad chapter is ruined. 😂 I appreciated the second to last paragraph in this chapter... We needed some #goodpeopletoo! 1w

BarkingMadRead @lil1inblue it definitely felt weird, it should be 1 and 1 and nothing else 🤣 1w

Bookwormjillk So today I learned there are only supposed to be 30 chapters in this book but for some reason mine has 50 something. And that's why I am so behind all the time. I feel so relieved. I thought I was imagining having read each day's chapter 😂Anyway I'm caught up now. 1w
