I didn't think it was anything super special. I thought it would be more disturbing, but it was pretty tame.

I loved this book!!! It's very subtle in the storytelling, and I actually really liked that. I love the shifting in tone when you finally understand what happens. This is definitely my kind of book.

Blood Meridian, or the Evening Redness in the West by Cormac McCarthy

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.
I wanted to read more Cormac McCarthy, but this book is kinda boring, and I absolutely hate the depictions of Natives. I want to read more disturbing fiction, and influential fiction, but this book was not it.

Read for school. I thought it was sooooo boring. I usually like literature about mental health, but this was not it for me.
