In the interest of full disclosure, I’ve never seen a Coen brothers’ movie that I didn’t like. Now, I know what you’re thinking, but I never saw The Ladykillers or Intolerable Cruelty! So it came as no surprise to me that I loved No Country For Old Men.

For my birthday, Emily got us tickets to the Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova concert in D.C. The two musicians are the stars of Once, a movie I’ve written about here (a great movie, by the way).
Emily and I love the soundtrack for the film and were very excited about seeing them in concert.

Been listening to this one a lot, pretty much the whole way through.
This novel was published after the Chilean-Mexican author's death, and I'm not even sure if it was entirely finished or not. It is broken up into five parts which, while connected, stand pretty much on there own. I have not yet made it to the grim part about the murders of hundreds of women in Mexico, so I have so far found it enjoyable and even funny despite some dark underpinnings. It's had a ton of critical praise, and I like it much more than my last foray into the violent novel genre: Blood Meridian.
