Blood Meridian is a pretty unforgettable read. I didn't really know anything about it when starting it beside it being a western and known as a book worth reading. Let's just say that it was quite different from the stereotypical western that I expected. It'll be very interesting to see how the movie turns out.
Also read The Road a long time ago and for whatever reason I never realized that he authored them both, although I should have expected based on the bleakness of them both.
