The Road
So far I like The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I like how unconventional this book is, like how there are no chapters, no quotations, and usually just periods. It makes this book unique just like the unique situation the Father and Son are in. I think it would be helpful if he used **** when there was a flash back. I remember being really confused as to why they were walking on the road one minute then going boating on a lake the next. Re-reading something that could of been easily avoided would of been really helpful, and it would make sense because **** means a change in time. It could mean ten minutes, ten hours, ten years, or even ten years in the past. Right now I am really looking forward to finding out what actually caused the end of the world. I have not found any clues yet and it is kind of bugging me. If this book is able to keep my interest I would really like to see the movie after I am done watching it. Hopefully they will change too much and it will stay faithful to the book. Now I am at 200 words.
