The way to get there, simply down the road. This book is everything but happy, and leaves you thinking of how the earth will truly become after disasters. The Road is a simple read, but reveals many gruesome actions by man themselves.

You honestly become close to these characters and feel their struggles.However, the author has a unique way of writing and language that may put you off from reading it.
