Lonesome Dove

So I kept seeing this book on Ticktock. People kept saying how good it is. It’s a western and I really didn’t think I would enjoy it as much as I did. It was so good, that now it will be hard to start another.

Have you read it? Tell me your thoughts on it.
If not what are you reading?

I've read it twice. There are prequels and sequels.

@hunkalove I did see that. Have you read them? Are they just as good?

@LavidaRaq I read them as they were published. The first one was a sequel and I was disappointed. Larry McMurtry had open heart surgery and was recovering on a lady friend's couch and he admitted later he was in a bad mood. At least one is a prequel when they are young Texas Rangers and it's very good. They are all worth reading. Larry McMurtry is my favorite writer and has been ever since I read The Last Picture Show in 1972.

@hunkalove I am waiting for them actually. Should be here any day now. Will check out the last picture show as well. Thank you ☺

@LavidaRaq There are also several sequels to The Last Picture Show.
