After I read the first line, I decided that I wouldn't be able to continue. But, as a book lover and a writer, I carried on. After reading the first few pages of extreme run-on sentences, I couldn't put it down. Why? I was itching to find more within the book that made absolutely no sense, what-so-ever. One paragraph, of five sentences, took almost an entire page. Mc Carthy used the word 'and' so much in one sentence, I thought I was going to have heart attack. Between the lack of quotation marks in dialogue, the lack of commas and those horrible run-on's, I am returning the book.
