    Man, this is so sad. Huge loss for American literature.

    Odd timing that I picked up a more recent book of his from the library just last week. The Passenger. It’s really cool so far.

    RIP

    I was so bummed to wake up to this, he was such an amazing novelist and even though I’ve only read The Road and Blood Meridian, both are up there as some of the best books I’ve ever read. I may need to pick up another of his books this month to read.

      Give The Border Trilogy a try. They got me back into reading about a year ago. They’re all fantastic but it starts off amazing with All The Pretty Horses.
