Section 1 Reflection

 Section one was similar to my expectations because it started out by describing George and Lennie's relationship.  George is obviously the dominant leader while Lennie is the calm, and slighlty confused partner.  Their dream is to own land and stop having to work but to get there, they have to work extra hard.  I think being the type of book that it is, it will have a happy ending with George and Lennie reaching their goals.  However, to make it interesting, I predict there will definetly be a few problems to try and stop them from reaching their goal.  So far, I like the language and the imagery it gives off, not too much detail but just enough so we can make the imagery ourselves.  The plot is still unclear but it is only the first section.  There are few questions that have arised so far in the book.  One, how did George and Lennie form their odd relationship in the first place?  Second, does Lennie have a mental disorder or some sort of reason to explain why he relies on George?   Finally, does George actually enjoy taking care of Lennie?
