I know a lot of people like McCarthy but he just isn't my cup of tea. I admit he's a good writer but his stories leave me a bit cold.

It would have been higher but just about everything after chapter eight was pointless navel gazing that added nothing to the story. If it had gone on any longer this would have been a DNF

Loved this book, the last chunk is maybe a bit slow, but I was surprised how much I was charmed & horrified by these characters.
