The Passage - Justin Cronin

[scribblecat]

This isn't the kind of book I normally read. I didn't know much when I picked it up but it grabbed me immediately, being very much a human story. It starts as the story of a little girl called Amy and her mother, struggling to survive on the streets. Then shit goes down. Lots of it, it's fabulous

I'm currently reading The Outsider (Jimmy Connor's autobiography - if you don't know who that is then I really am very, very old!) but this sounds like a good read so if it's available in Kindle format I think I'll give it a go. :)

Thanks for the rec, Sez. x

Hey Maz! Sorry I don't want you to think you're old but I don't know Jimmy Connor!
I think this one comes in Kindle, give it a go! Someone already snagged the movie rights before the second one even came out. I think it was Spielberg.

No, no, don't worry, Sez my darling. I'll just feel old then. ;) Jimmy Connors was the winner of numerous Grand Slam titles in tennis (including two Wimbledons) and a contemporary of John McEnroe...I'm gambling on you knowing who he is!!

Yes, it's on Kindle and it's waiting for me! :) Film rights (especially if it's Spielberg!) is great news.
