Status Updates From Comanche Moon

Larry loves writing about “whores”

McMurtry does a wonderful job of blending elements of romance and friendship with the rough living of the West and various battle scenes. I don’t think I’ve ever read an author that can turn a scene where two characters talk about eating an owl soup into a discussion of grief but somehow he did it.

Might as well throw this one in the five star category now. 200ish pages in and it’s setting up Lonesome Dove perfectly, all while being a fantastic book on its own.
