These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
High Octane Nightmare Fuel: When the jacunços were so tired and hungry that they shoot a monkey and ate it. Later, they discovered it was a crazy guy running naked, because his mother told them!
The horses' massacre. All that blood, and the cries...
How about Madeiro Vaz shooting the leprous man in the head? So damn hideous.
It Was His Sled: Well, all these spoiler tags are nonsensical to Brazilians, but maybe if you are a foreign reader you won't know that Diadorim was a woman, after all, and how she tragically dies.
Narm: Before the big battle, in a scene that is pure Unresolved Sexual Tension, Riobaldo asks Diadorim if he doesn't have any sister.
Romantic Plot Tumor: There's a FREAKING WAR going on, but mostly people just remember the gay love thing, wich is written amazingly, by the way.
Stoic Woobie: Riobaldo, near the end for sure, and Diadorim, all the time.
Tear Jerker: Thirty pages before the end, go there and cry.
