I loved it, and I hope you do to.<BR/><BR/>Joy, it seems like 'The Road' is a love it or leave it type of book. Let me know what your hubby thinks of "Against the Day". I think it has to be read in small bites.<BR/><BR/>3m, like I said, I'll keep you all updated. It's daunting to say the least.kookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00994570192941993135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3854757878784277532.post-66473870909594454372007-04-11T23:25:00.000-05:002007-04-11T23:25:00.000-05:00I was hoping someone would read this!

For example: I made (yes, made) him read THE ROAD before I had to take it back to the library. (AND just for the record, he didn't like it. He rated it a 2.5/5.) He also is reading another book alongside it. Books that big are very intimidating. They scare me away! I hope you enjoy it and it's well worth your time. :) Happy Reading!Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00832231139076878401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3854757878784277532.post-76316937783174707612007-04-11T17:14:00.000-05:002007-04-11T17:14:00.000-05:00Good luck!
