Rolling Ahead

Thank you for commenting on my blog. Please check in periodically as I am new to this and hope to improve rapidly.

I finished No Country for Old Men (McCarthy) and I'm tempted to say it is the best book I've ever read. Over three hundred pages of some of the best language and plot I have ever seen on paper. I read it in two days--it was that good!

I found an interesting blog the other day and I'll post it's address on the sidebar. It mentions this new "book" device. A professor of mine (Dr. Evans at NCCU) recommends it highly. Check it out:

Glad you liked it, MD! Read my most recent post and, since you liked the Road, I definitely think you'd like Butler's Parable of the Sower.
