A review by zhaneordo
Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy

dark mysterious sad tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

This was the worse DnD campaign to experience, not because the journey, but because of the horrible players. Worse than your local murdering hobos, The Kid falls into a real life larpers group, who take their quest far too seriously. 

A book full of quotes with no quotations, means a lot of rereading. The rereading is worth it in this death filled western. The only good thing that happens to you in this book is when you’re finished and you no longer have to experience it anymore. 

It’s okay, randomly you’ll have a thought about how horrible these people were and hopefully we’ll all use it as our ethical meridian in life.
