Bolivar stirred his sugary coffee and held his peace. He whacked the dinner bell because he liked the sound, not because he wanted anybody to come and eat. The men could eat when they liked-- he would whack the bell when he liked.
I get relatively excited when I find a book that goes above my expectations. Usually seeing a movie to a book would turn one off to actually going out and buying it. Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry really is am interesting book for me to start with. So far it's quite descriptive and the characters are well-rounded. I've only gotten to chapter 5 today and I am already starting to be impartial to characters like Call and Augustus. I'm also curious to find out more about people like Lorie and Bolivar (who seems really vulgar to me). To be quite honest I get a better picture of the book as a whole because I don't actually REMEMBER seeing the book on TV, so I get to start from scratch. Plus, I already had the book in my inventory, so I didn't have to buy it. I'm excited to see where this book is going to take me. It seems like it's strictly a pleasure reading book. My hope is that it can tug at my heartstrings because I need something to cry about. The drama has been lacking in my private life.
