It's a classic book by John Steinbeck. Have you read it? What did you think of it? I really enjoyed it.

I've only read a summary, from what I could glean (I was in like 4th grade) Lenny is a really depressing character.

I had to read it like 5 times at school.

I recognise that line from the Robert Burns poem, "To a Mouse". Is it related?

Actually, it is. Steinbeck changed the title from Something That Happened to Of Mice and Men after reading the poem.

I just had to read it over winter break for my English class. The ending was sad, but it really had to happen.

Very true. I knew something like that was bound to happen. sad

I've never read it, but my brother had to make a movie based on the book for school.
