West: A Novel | Carys Davies

Like others here, I wanted to read more from Davies after Clear. I liked this one, a novel of obsession, the expansiveness of men‘s lives and the rapid narrowing of girls‘s as they become women. The ending is a tad preposterous but I liked it.

squirrelbrain Yes, I agree, the ending didn‘t quite fit… 46m
BarbaraBB I agree too. It‘s not as good as Clear 35m

All the Pretty Horses | Cormac McCarthy
post image

I am revisiting some of the books that I read during my 1352-day sojourn in the woods. It's been a year since I left so I feel like I'm in a better place to revisit what it all meant. I liked McCarthy's “The Road“. But I don't think horses are all that pretty so westerns don't really speak to me. I did identify with the feeling of dread when they met Jimmy. Sometimes you know that there's nothing you can do to stop your world from falling apart.

Every star ever available goes to this book! “Conquering this classic” with From the Front Porch podcast has been one of the best reading experiences of my whole life. I‘m practically a cowgirl now. Who knew I belong on the range?! 🤠

Loved this! Such a tense book, from both the POV of Cy Bellman who goes west to find mythical animals and even more so for his young daughter left behind in the care of Cy‘s sister.

I don‘t think I loved it as much as Clear, and I wasn‘t *entirely* sure about the very end but I definitely want to read more by this author.

Thanks for sending it to me @BarbaraBB 😘

BarbaraBB It couldn‘t beat Clear, I agree! 1mo
sarahbarnes I want to read more by this author, too! 1mo
Tamra I‘m a fan girl of Davies! I‘ve read everything I can get my hands on - started with her short story collections. (edited) 1mo
