After reading this and concluding that it wasn't for me for a number of reasons, I turned to other Goodreads reviews to see if others found the same distractions and annoyances that I did.

God bless you all, Goodreads reviewers.

Grey's writing is fun, but a bit tired. He waxes rhapsodic about the sage and the color of the sage at least twice on each page. Is this an exaggeration? Read it yourself and see.

Something so anti-pick-a-religion could never get published today. How the Church of Latter Day Saints didn't cut Grey's throat and let him bleed out after this is beyond me.

It's a Western! It's a Romance! It's a Western! It's a Romance! It's both, wrapped up in a cliched mess.

It'll be a while before I turn to another Zane Grey book on purpose.
