Reaction to Chapters 1-2 in ATPH

So far, I have not enjoyed All The Pretty Horses very much. I think that the writing style that Cormac McCarthy has employed is confusing and hard to follow. I find myself at times trying to figure out which character is talk, as there is no quotation marks and very little indication of who is talking and when. Although Ms. West assures us that we will love this book, I have not been able to get excited about it. Hopefully the all-knowing Ms. West will be right, and the plot will pick up a bit so that I can enjoy it.
