Our book for October–November 2026 is Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, a short American classic of about 110 pages. It follows two friends, George and Lennie, who travel together looking for farm work and dream of owning a small piece of land. It is a quick read with simple language and plenty to talk about: friendship, loneliness, dreams and difficult choices.
