I‘m only 1/2 way through this gorgeous book and I already have cowboy swagger….lol….Good God, I can‘t believe I didn‘t read this in the 90s when I was cowboy obsessed. This has been a wonderful experience thus far and I expect this to be one of my favorite books of all time. This is definitely the year of McMurtry for me! Gus McCrea and Captain Call❤️

I absolutely fell in love with Rye, such an unassuming badass. Westerns catch a lot of undeserved criticism for being gun worshipping propaganda. This story follows the reluctant gunman, Ryan Tyler, as he navigates growing up as an orphan in the dangerous Old West. He fights to hold onto the morals instilled in him by his late parents, even when faced with the ultimate betrayal.
Book 1 of #JuneontheRange2024.

Another book finished in the hammock this evening! This book‘s taken me a long time to read, partly because I haven‘t had much print reading time and partly because it wasn‘t that compelling. I enjoyed it but never felt I just had to keep reading. Ben Sippy is a dime novelist from Philadelphia who decides to actually see the Wild West he‘s written about. He befriends the boy who will become Billy the Kid and tells his version of the story.
