Lonesome Dove (Larry McMurtry)
$24.99

It transcends the Western genre as a novel about kinship, mortality, and what it means to live a good life. Quite possibly the finest storytelling I've ever read 😭

“This adventure is nothing short of extraordinary. Every word is perfect. I'll be recommending this for a long long time. Thanks to all the RL recommenders who put this on my radar @James Kylstra, @Louise Buckley, @Amanda, and so many others.”
