Gotta get the audio books from your library, through the Libby app. Makes immersive reading wayyyy cheaper

McCarthy is definitely one of my favorite writers. I'd recommend The Crossing next.

It seems like the books are always better than the movies they make about them

You hit the nail on the head, I think: everything you loved about the movie (the pace, the negative space, the sparseness and patience of the cinematography and editing, the quiet) come through even stringer in the novel. It’s such an astonishing showcase for McCarthy’s skills.

I tried to read blood meridian but reading writing like that is incredibly annoying. Was it a task to read his books at the start?

I tell people that often about carrying the fire. It’s such a meaningful thing to hear to me. We gotta carry the fire.

Just goes to show how amazing writers can be that you've experienced the story and know the outcomes but McCarthy is able to show you it really is about the journey not the destination. What's the next book on your list ?

Dude, totally! I feel like this is one of the few instances where reading it after seeing the moving is the way to go. Brilliant movie that can be further enhanced by reading the book afterward.
