Have I read this before: Yup. Back in 2014 I think.

Review: It’s alright. It’s one of the many books that I’ve read on my list that doesn’t really stand out in either the “god this is bad” direction or the “GOD THIS IS FANTASTIC” direction. It’s…there. I do like Cather’s writing style, though.

Favorite Part: This beautiful description of the ride back to Santa Fe:

“The sky was full of brilliant sunlight. The sky was as full of motion and change as the desert beneath it was monotonous and still – and there was so much sky, more than at sea, more than anywhere else in the world. The plain was there, under one’s feet, but what one saw when one looked about was that brilliant blue world of stinging air and moving cloud. Even the mountains were mere anthills underneath it. Elsewhere the sky is the roof of the world; but here the earth was the floor of the sky.”
