I couldn't stop thinking about this book. I am a fan of McCarthy's writing, and it certainly isn't for everyone. It is graphic and includes violence, so please do not read if you feel unsettled by these things easily. However, if you are able to, McCarthy's writing explores a postmodern, wild west world dealing with organized crime, racism, and violence.
