A lot has changed in the book since the first post. They decided to travel to the coast before heading south. They have passed a few people. The first they passed was a group of the bad guys and the old man had to shoot one of them to save the boy. They took all their belongings, though, so they had nothing to eat. They kept walking but they ran out of food. Then they got to an underground bunker that had tons of food and they stayed there for a couple days. They took showers and it had everything they could've wanted. They had to leave after a few days and they took as much as they could carry. On the road they came across a blind man who was by himself. The old man wanted to leave him, but the boy begged him to give the man a couple cans of food. They gave him the food and went on their way. The old man was already going to die, but he was going to live a few more days thanks to them. This book reminds me of the maze runner because in both books they are trying to survive. They are both dystopian societies and the world is almost destroyed. In both of them there is this city that is a stronghold that is one of the last remaining places that is safe. In the Maze Runner it is the Last City, but in The Road it is the South. In the book there is no government that we know of. Everyone is just trying to survive by themselves. In real life, we have a democracy which is a government where the people have a say. These are two very different ways of living and order. I will comment on Jazmin's and Nia's blogs
