My opinion of the story is that is was a pretty boring book, except the last chapter when it started getting interesting when Lennie killed Curley's wifev and he had to run away. I thought it was pretty sad when George shot and killed Lennie by shooting him in the back of the head. I thought it was okay that George shot him though, because he had made a mistake by accidently killing Curley's wife, and Curley would have killed Lennie if George hadn't.
