This sweeping tale captures the essence of Texas on a staggering scale as it chronicles the life and times of cattleman Jordan "Bick" Benedict, his naive young society wife, Leslie, and three generations of land-rich sons. A sensational story of power, love, cattle barons, and oil tycoons, Giant was the basis of the classic film starring James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, and Rock Hudson.

1. Yes! I have several faves. And a couple of years ago, I read quite a few in a classic reading challenge.

2. I still have over two dozen on my TBR bookcase including the tagged.

Who hasn‘t played? Consider yourself tagged!
