Oh yes, The Road is a strong reading experience, it is amazing how it avoids to feel exploitative with it's very scaled down language. Actually I am also reading another post-apocalyptic novel right now, the 'Gone-Away World' by Nick Harkaway. It is also good, but not as dark as the Road, more humorous and a twisted kind of adventure, featuring ninjas, rebels, secret special forces, weapons of mass destruction, coldhearted indutrialists and your worst nightmares coming true .... not a masterpiece, but lots of fun if you are into those kind of things (and maybe, maybe you are, or I misread your shelf) ...
Hi Lianne.Glad to make friends with you. I find your shelf quite interesting myself, specially since there are lots of stuff I haven't read but would like to. Like Onyx and Crake or that The Child Thief. Please tell me your thoughts. I'm quite into post apocalyptic stuff for the moment after reading The Road by Cormac McCarthy and The Book of Dave by Will Self. Both interesting enough, although very different. One dark dark american noir, the other very cynic british satire... Take care,Jonas
i don't know why shelfari has such issues with the less than symbol. how am i supposed to discuss nonlinear inequalities on here? :( (p.s. that last thing was supposed to be a heart...)

Hi there! I'm just dropping by to welcome you to The 100+ Book Challenge. The idea of the group is pretty much self explanatory - try to read 100 or more books in a one year period. If you do have any questions, please feel free to send a message to me or Tenia. In the meantime, good luck reaching your goal!
