Even the Lonesome Dove series probably went on a bit too long.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-1018881232609998062007-11-30T22:17:00.000-06:002007-11-30T22:17:00.000-06:00I think you'll like this one, Jenclair.

They are just the opposite, great comic characters with lots of personality.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-43582952444913929352007-11-30T22:16:00.000-06:002007-11-30T22:16:00.000-06:00I'm pretty much the same way, bybee, when it comes...I'm pretty much the same way, bybee, when it comes to critics...period. I try not to let them discourage me to the point that I give up on one of my favorite authors without checking for myself the value of the book in question. This one really got ripped on Amazon, like nothing of his that I've ever seen get anything near that treatment. I'm glad I read it because those two ladies were fun toSam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-80492732739248313512007-11-29T16:29:00.000-06:002007-11-29T16:29:00.000-06:00This one sounds good.

Larry McMurtry can be read until 2:00 a.m. even on a work night great (Lonesome Dove, The Last Picture Show) and he can be lousy (the sequals to The Last Picture Show).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-69718313231401073522007-11-29T14:38:00.000-06:002007-11-29T14:38:00.000-06:00I'm a McMurtry fan as well, and I'm becoming parti...I'm a McMurtry fan as well, and I'm becoming partial to books that feature older women...ahem.
