Grapes Of Wrath(I stopped reading No country for old men)

I started to read Grapes of Wrath because I heard it was a good book, and to me no country for old men was a good book but it didn't keep my attention to well. To start off I just read the chapter 1-4.

I think John Steinbeck did a great job of detailing the environment and what’s going on in the Dust Bowl. I love how the first chapter is steinbeck setting up the setting I think that captures the book well and puts you where you need to know. I did not really understand the turtle in the first chapter. Im sure it will end up symbolizing something but fof now im confused. So lets just see where this ends up and goes. Knowing Steinbeck and of mice and men it will good.
