This definitely resonated with me more than the movie did. The tone is tense, casual, and ultimately Southern the whole way through. This really sets the environment and throws the reader right into each of the scenes. I can see how it easily translated to a screenplay. Very enjoyable and Chigurh is one of the creepier characters I've come across in a novel.

It has dawned on me that McCarthy is the best author alive, probably the greatest American author ever, and I am making it my immediate goal to read his entire catalogue.
