Status Updates From To Tame a Land

Well, Rye seems to be heading toward a final showdown to win Liza over. It’s been a really good back, classic L’amour storytelling… can beat it.

Rye’s reputation as a gunfighter is growing and he doesn’t necessarily like it, I don’t blame him… it’s caused him to have to leave 2 towns. He’s done a lot of traveling, I love to picture myself on horseback riding down the trail with little worries just going wherever the trail leads to. He’s headed back to Colorado to see Liza, Interested to see what happens there.

Like all L’amour books this is just a likable book. A good story, I already feel like I’ve known the cast for years. Rye the main character is a likable kid along with his mentor Logan and wife Mary. Excited to keep going deeper in this one.

Still a quick moving plot. Punchy descriptions of fights and glorified toxic masculinity.

Surprised at how quickly the plot moves without making the story seem disconnected.

Aside from Stephen King’s *The Gunslinger,* I haven’t read any westerns. Thought I’d try one from an author my mom enjoyed.
