Very difficult to read (as in, the text itself is hard to read, e.g. no quotes for characters). Depressing ending.

Good choice if you’re looking for a short read, enticing plot, and some flawed characters that have you rooting for them anyway. Some witty banter, some shocking twists, plenty of imagery. And a badass villain. But is Anton the villain, or is it the drug trade itself? Enjoyable read if you’re a fan of McCarthy’s style and a nihilist. Hehe.

The first 3/4 was great, then the excitement for the story began to be reminiscent ramblings. If it ended 3/4 of the way it would have been 5 stars for me
