Shits about to go downnn. Such a good book man

That talk Grady had with the great aunt might be the most fascinating literary conversation I’ve ever read. Made me want to reread Blood Meridian which is something I didn’t think I’d say so soon.

“What do you want to know? he said.
Only what the world wants to know.
What does the world want to know.
The world wants to know if you have cojones. If you are brave.” Fuuucckkk that’s so good dude. That entire conversation was amazing

McCarthy is really good at writing about environments. It’s just so hard not to get immersed in this book when he writes like this

Was waiting for Blevins for come back eventually

Shits getting real now. They’re going back north, but did they commit a crime or anything? I honestly might’ve missed that. I know they ran away but did they steal anything before they left? Idk but this is still an amazing book. Annoying to translate all the Spanish sometimes cause it takes me out of the novel but it’s still so beautiful and immersive.

I hope I see more of this great aunt she seems like a badass

I had to take a little break reading this while on vacation because I didn’t have any WiFi and I end up googling like 2 phrases or words per page. Back on the grind now though
