Urge to read.... Rising!

Recently finished "The Road", by a mister Cormac McCarthy. I believe that's the proper spelling. Left a resounding impact on me. In terms of style of writing, the road stands out with a sublimely concise method of description, which my com padre Dave added to by pointing out the prose-like quality of whole paragraphs in the story.There is an untold amount of books that I could pick up and read in a day, however there are very few which I would enjoy doing so with. "The Road" stands as one of those few. That Elite Classy Bitch of a crowd. Completion of the tale has prompted me to begin reading "No Country For Old Men", but only once I have completed my daunting book-list that lies in wait, slowly calculating my every move whilst simultaneously counting down the seconds to my death. All while twirling its mustache in a most unsettling manner.

THE PLAN I SHALL STICK TO IN ORDER TO PROPERLY COMBAT MY FOE:
Firstly I am required to finish "World War Z" as it is on loan from a friend and does not belong to me. Secondly "Schindler's List" because something about it seems worth reading, but i cant really put my finger on what it is. All of that shit followed by a literally heaping plate of "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" as well as other assorted short stories and novels by mister Philip K. Dick. Round that off with both a second read through of Ray Bradbury's "Something Wicked This Way Comes", as well as a beginners attempt at the Dark Tower series, and I would seem to have a busy month in store.

Here's lookin at you kid.

P.S. The Road made me very sad.. So here is a blurry picture of Sean "Diddy" Combs murdering Kashmir by Led Zeppelin. And Godzilla. At the exact same fucking time.
