Good lord what an awesome book. Having seen the movie first, I’m going to say the movie severely undersells the book. And that’s no quibble on the movie, just a testament to how good I feel the book is. On the surface, it’s a perfect modern western, but there’s so much more depth underneath all that. My second Cormac book and quickly becoming my favorite author. So careful and detailed but all built within awesome plot and steady pacing. This and The Road maaaay be top 5 all timers??

This put me in a reading slump and life is too short for that.
