The Passenger by Cormac McCarthy
3.0
I think this is the saddest book I've ever read, but that's not the reason for my low rating. It was so hard to follow, and I had to immediately consult summaries upon finishing. Someone noted it wasn't really a story at all, but more so tellings of a troubled person. The grief in this book was palpable, though. Unsure if all of McCarthy's books are written in this style, but I'll likely stay away from his works to avoid more reading pain.
