I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned this on here before, but I’m stingy when it comes to buying physical copies of (fiction) books. That is, I really have to like a book in order to want a physical copy of it. I think this stems from moving houses SO MANY TIMES in my life; books are super heavy and are rough to haul around.

Anyway.

Given all this, I ordered a physical copy of Lonesome Dove today.

Am I done with the book yet? No. But am I enamored enough with it at 60% of the way through to already want a physical copy? Yes.

It’s really good, y’all. You’ll see more details in my review in a few days, but unless the ending is like “and they woke up and it was ALL JUST A DREAM!!!” or some such nonsense, this is definitely going to be my top book of the year.

(Yes, I know it’s just February. But it’s a GOOD. BOOK.)
