pickEverett tells the story of a black rancher/horse trainer and his uncle in Wyoming. A gay man is murdered in the town and the main characters become involved in unexpected ways. Everett‘s story is so detailed about ranch life, training horses, and brutal weather that I had to research if Everett had worked on a ranch and, yes, he did. This is a quick read and engrossing as all of his books are and it ended too quickly.
A quote from this book written in 2005.
pick#BookReport
Finished 3 memoirs this week. Each well written. I am broken hearted that Virginia didn‘t live to see her book published and the impact it is making. All of those girls and women deserve justice and peace. I wish I believed they would get those things.
I finished 12 books this month, 6 nonfiction of which 5 were memoirs and 1 WWII history. I feel like I am gaining some reading momentum finally.
pickDespite the incredibly tough subject, this is one heck of a memoir. It‘s so well-written and takes into account moments when readers are going to struggle to keep going, and addresses it, and redirects so you can keep reading this story of such an awfully tragic life. One hundred percent essential reading.
pickTough but necessary read.
pickThis was interesting.
