No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy
dark
slow-paced
3.0
I thought this book was fantastic until the major plot twist; from that point on, it went downhill. It became too philosophical and boring to the point where I just couldn't care anymore. I was never interested in reading about Bell. I was more invested in the cat-and-mouse game between Moss and Chigurh. This book wasn't as thought-provoking as it pretended to be. It went from a gripping thriller to a philosophical mess. The writing was confusing—Cormac McCarthy doesn't use quotations or clearly indicate who is speaking to whom. It was frustrating, to say the least.
Overall, it's an okay book, but I definitely enjoyed "The Road" more.
