While I appreciate Kelly's interest in completing each of the first round of books, I could not bring myself to finish this book and therefore cannot say that I will accomplish the first round in quite the same way.
Cees Nooteboom's Road to Santiago was entirely too much for me. From the beginning, I had a hard time following what was going on. The author talked about his love of Spain, but never explained the significance of his journey to Santiago specifically. He then started the trip and, as Kelly mentioned, would bounce from one town to the next in a matter of paragraphs, but then take several pages to describe one church. I found it uninteresting and it did not flow well for my personal taste.
I don't have much to say, as I didn't even make it to the half-way point. This one just didn't cut it for me.
