Good morning! Somehow I downloaded and started a book that I can't place in a prompt. I think I just got so into reading lately that I was just grabbing books off of my library wish list that I forgot about checking prompts. In any event, any suggestions as to what prompts The Grapes of Wrath might fall under? Thank you!

I have never read The Grape of Wrath, myself, but from what I know about it I think it would work for a book involving travel and probably book mentioned in another book (I'm guessing this is so simply because this book is a classic, but don't quote me on this!). You could also argue that it is about an immigrant. They may be staying within the country, but they are migrating due to poor conditions in their home state.Maybe some of the other members will have more ideas :)
I'd say you could put it under the TBR prompt, since it's a classic that everyone should read, and that means you've probably have been meaning to read it for awhile? ;) I'd second that it could be stretched to be used for the immigrant prompt (about Okies).
A book about travel - travel from OK to CA.
I'm sure its also a book mentioned in another book, but where I don't know.
The New York Public Library lists it for where to start reading John Steinbeck (for prompt Recommended by a Librarian):https://www.nypl.org/blog/2017/02/23/...
this book is mentioned in The Glass Castle.
Great! Thank you ladies! I will likely use it for "Book Mentioned in Another Book" since I don't have anything for that category yet. That seems like it should be an easy category to fill, but for some reason I just had not come up with one yet.
