5.0

A tense and gripping crime thriller that completely threw me for a loop near the end. This is definitely something you need to let simmer after reading all of it. It is one of the best books I’ve ever read, and beginning to understand the themes of fate, morality, justice, etc. that McCarthy implemented into the story make it that much better.

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.
