It’s National Novel Reading Month. Time to read that classic novel you put off reading.
Last year I read The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. This year, I am reading The Road by Cormac McCarthy.
With the first gray light he rose and left the boy sleeping and walked out to the road and squatted and studied the country to the south. Barren, silent, godless. He thought the month was October but he wasn’t sure. He hadn’t kept a calendar for years. They were moving south. There’d be no surviving another winter here.
– The Road by Cormac McCarthy
i might have to add this to my TBR list.
Hope you do!
This is on my TBR shelf but I haven’t read it yet. Stephen King’s The Stand is one of my favorite books, so I am hoping it is along those lines. Found you through the hop http://georgielee.blogspot.com I’m following you.
I don’t know, I haven’t read the stand. But you should read this one!
Great teaser for a great book. Plus, because you’re reading the movie tie-in edition I got to see Viggo this morning.
Viggo? What? And I think probably the version I have was published before the movie came out. The cover I have here mentions the movie though.
Strong, empowering story!

I think so!
Good choice. I’ll be eager to hear what you think about it. My teasers this week are from Hattie Ever After by Kirby Larson and Die for Me by Cynthia Eden. Happy reading!

Have a great week!
It’s a movie? I haven’t seen it, seems like a good book. I’ve been looking for others besides YA
Sounds gripping! May have to look into this, but it also seems quite sad…
