East of Eden was good, although not as good as the Grapes of Wrath in my opinion. I really like Steinbeck as well. While I liked The Pearl and Of Mice and Men I thought they were too short for Steinbecks writing style. I like it when takes the time and the pages to tell his story. I liked Cannery Row the best of the shorter novels that I have read of his.
