Child of God - Cormac McCarthy. 6/10. A sick, perveted and demented little book. Just not overly so...like Blood Meridian for example. One of his early, first works. While the prose was well written, the richness of story found in his later works isn't there yet.
All The Pretty Horses - Cormac McCarthy. 8/10. Very impressive read. A story of forbidden love between a chica from a prosperous Mexican family and a young, headstrong cowboy from Tennessee who fights everyone and everything to be with her.
