I loved that book, it made me appreciate the movie even more. I'd like to give The Road a try, but ATPH was at hand, and my wife swore up and down by it. We had a serious discussion afterward...

I liked "No Country for Old Men" but didn't like "The Road" much

I rather liked The Road and the fairly consant sense of danger and doom. Hopefully the movie adaptation should be good too.

Wasn't really impressed by The Road. The way it was written made me want to stab my eyes out. At the moment, I'm reading Swan Song by Robert McCammon.

I'm reading Inkheart, for my daughter's sake, because she wants me to take her to the movie this weekend.

I've just begun The Shack by W. Paul Young. My Wife just finished and said that it has changed her Spiritual Life. I've only just started and I gotta confess I'm more than a little scared to read it. My darkest fears are ones concerning the safety of my children and sinse this book deals with just that, I'm nautious as I turn pages.
That being said, my Wife assures me that the outcome and the religious concepts and questions tackled, help carry you through.
The praise from those who've read it have tempted me.
Who knows?

I read the shack, it didn't change my life or answer any of my philisophical questions, although I had heard the same things as you did about the book.
