In Dubious Battle | John Steinbeck

Pickpick

This story of labor organizers and migrant fruit pickers is interesting and timely. We follow Mac, a seasoned organizer, and Jim, basically a trainee, as they try to get their strike off ground. I found the lack of motivation from the pickers to better themselves frustrating. This lack in motivation leads Mac to be rather ruthless, which was often hard to stomach. This is definitely worth reading. #LitsyAtoZ #readharder2017 #published1900to1950

Bookzombie My only complaint was a lack of strong female characters. I can't remember how many times I mentioned this to my husband. 7y
tpixie Interesting- I've never heard of this Steinbeck 7y
Bookzombie @tpixie It's not as famous as his other works. I randomly picked it up for my husband and he had been asking me to read it for a while. 🙂 7y

The Talisman Ring | Georgette Heyer

Finished this one up late last night. It was my first ever Georgette Heyer and it won't be my last. I usually prefer my romance novels with a little more sex, but this was just so hilarious! There wasn't really a description of the ring, but this image is kind of what I imagined (image from web). #ReadHarder #Published1900to1950
