The Road

This is one of those change-your-perspective-and-therefore-your-life kinda books. I liked it but i cant say i loved it because it was graphic and dark and gave me nightmares. The end made me cry but that's probably because I am a teenage girl in a state of continuous emotional instability. The style was awesome. It was easy to read but the vocab was advanced- there was a word to look up on nearly every page. The imagery is disturbing but the themes explored were fascinating. The love between a father and son. Survival. Murder vs. self-defense. How people change in the face of constant terror. Humanity. What that even means. It made you think of what you would do in this post-apocalyptic world. Really its a love story between a father and son.
