So I'm the 10 Millionth Person to Say The Road is a Really Good Book...

but its true.  The book was pretty great, I didn't cry but this is as close as I will ever get to crying while reading a book.  It will crush your soul.  I just finished it this morning.  It's the third Cormac McCarthy book I've read and far and away the best.  Plenty of really damn smart people have said this book is a classic so I don't have much else to add to the conversation I guess but it is very highly recommended.
