Getting easier to understand. McCarthy doesn’t mince words.

It’s solid so far. *Spoiler*: still waiting for the judge to show back up since he’s the star of the book by many accounts. This may be the first book I’ve read that I can’t binge because of how often I need to pause and reread a paragraph to understand what is going on. Reading this requires patience.

Hard to read more than two chapters at a time. Not a fan of the writing style.

Nothing could have prepared me for how difficult the prose and the lack of quotation marks make this book to read.
