    A good read and a classic of the genre. Some fantastic descriptive passages and a brilliant final page. Would recommend.



    Jack Kerouac, what a guy 8 months ago

    i digged this book 1 year ago

    not the most amazing book in the world, but it was a good read. it def. has meaning and i can see how it has such a cult following over the years. worth a read, Dean is a facinating character although i prefered Sal(natator).

    A work of art. 2 years ago

    Finally finished this fantastic novel yesterday, and to be honest, it blew me away. Jack Kerouac’s flawless, beautiful writing is so deeply inspiring—he makes you want to just stop sitting down watching time go by and go see the world. There’s just so much out there, and he makes you feel like it isn’t right to just sit there and read about it!

    I now fully understand how Hunter S. Thompson was inspired by his style of writing—both authors are very similar. You read their books, and you’re impacted by them so much it’s insane. Some people would think that this novel has no point, but it really does. It’s Sal Paradise, living his life to the ultimate fullest, and never missing a moment of it.

    I highly recommend this book, it’s extremely life-changing and overall a great read.

    as expected: this book is pretty good.. i just how it feels like to be awake when the sun is red in a strange hotel room… the air was stale with overwashed bedlinen…

    On the Road 2 years ago

    Received the book from my roommate (now ex). As a goodbye gift i guess. Been eying to buy this book since last year… Hope to start this during week-long Aidul Fitr holiday…



    On the Road is On the Loose! 2 years ago

    I’m only on chapter five or so, but this book is extremely inspiring—it’s easy to see how Hunter S. Thompson and Johnny Depp were inspired by Jack Kerouac, his writing is so beautiful and poetic.

    My life has been a bit crazy, so it’s been harder for me to just sit down and read this amazing masterpiece, but I hope to finish soon!
