All the pretty horses

I started this book during my trip to Death Valley and just finished it. Whether because the setting in which I read it was perfect or simply because it sweeps you along with its impeccable pace, I really enjoyed it. It's hardly a deep book, but it was enjoyable, in a simple way.
Unlike Annie Proulx, Cormac McCarthy does not bother me with the liberties he takes with English grammar and syntax. I'm debating whether to read the remaining two Border Trilogy books. Probably sometime, but not right away.
