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.

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.
