Book Review: The Road (McCarthy)
Have I read this before: Nope.
Review: This was…okay. I was expecting to be a lot more shocked/disturbed by it based on what I knew about the novel, but it wasn’t nearly as shocking as I was expecting it to be. It was good, but some parts were a bit repetitive, especially in terms of how things were presented/described. Which may have been half the point, but still. At least it was a refreshing change in terms of voice and writing style compared to a lot of stuff on my list.
Favorite Part: I really liked the way the hope and relief was conveyed when they found the underground bunker full of supplies. It was nice to see the man and the boy finally get a bit of rest and relative safety, though I was worried that they’d be discovered the whole time they were down there.
Rating: 5/10
