Review of 'The Road' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

The story is fairly dark and bleak. It is also quite repetitive, I almost put the book down because it kept repeating the same scenario, but varied just enough to get to the end. It was looking for more details on what happened, though them not knowing, I suppose, is part of the story.

The book is written with a distinct style, filled with dialog but not the customary dialog tags, confusing at times but not overly so. I realized it didn't always matter who said it.
