finished...probably won't read the second book of the series...didn't care about the story enough.

I need to pick something else off my shelf...maybe Lonesome Dove

A reread? or fresh start?

Great book. As are all the sequels/prequels.

I have had the paperback on my coffee table for a while now

I need something that isn't fantasy or sci fi...feels like that's all I have read this year

I'm about to be out on medical leave for a month, so I picked up a ton of stuff from the library for while I'm recovering. Mostly classics that I've never read and don't usually have the time for.

I would love to do that.

if you want to try something new, I'd recommend Pierce Brown's Red Rising trilogy.

I liked Buffalo Girls and The Wandering Hill even more.

 

[Kburjr]

The Wandering Hill even more.

Actually, the entire Berryman Narratives.

 

[Kburjr]

Used bookstore find. It's been on my subconscious "want to eat list".

The Legend of Bagger Vance.

Currently reading Sin Killer. Wandering Hill is waiting for me at the library.

 

[Kburjr]

Just starting 1491 2nd Edition where the author added more post-Columbus material and updates.

 

[PackJason]

Just read this again for the first time in probably 25 years. Quite simple, but fun one-sitting read. It's somehow better without the illustrations.
