Okay guys, I am going to take a break from reading blood meridian because it's too hard, and because it's halloween in a week, I'm going to start reading dracula.

You need to read it with a dictionary at your side or invest in an e-reader.

What, blood meridian? Yeah I should read that one on my kindle, like holy fuck there's so many words I don't know. for some books I just love the feel of having the book itself and reading it without the little e reader, but blood meridian is definitely a book that I will be reading on my e reader. You probably meant dracula though. We'll see how it goes.

I hate when I have to give up on a book for the time being. Though it is a valuable skill to be able to realize you are not able to parse what the fuck you are reading.

I meant Blood Meridian. Dracula isn't difficult to get through. There's little reason for someone like myself to know what a pommel is, for example. The same can be said about the various types of rock formations. In that respect, the book is hard, but less so with respect to its themes.
