about Lonesome Dove

This book was written by Larry Mcurtry and won the Pulitzer prize. it is actually a really good book and i would recommend it to anyone who has a lot of time on their hands because this book is huge. ive read like 215 pages and almost nothing has happened. Anyways the book is really well written, i don't know exactly what makes good writing but i think if you dont notice the writing then it's a good writing. Sometimes i almost forget im reading because the book is so detailed. i can picture everything perfectly, i wouldn't want to see the movie because i feel like it would ruin the book. Probably the best part about this book are the character's, every character that is in the book is described so well you really get a sense for who they are. even the old guy who hangs out at the saloon named lippy is described very well, almost so well i could right a paper on him.
