In honour of the last Monday's Muse, it's a Western. Ish. I think they get as far as Kentucky.
Anyhoo, I've made it to 24%. And I'm stopping there.
It's not horrible. It's not that badly written. (Girl gets raped and attacked, and saved by 2 brothers. She goes with them and falls in love with one of her rescuers, but due to some classic romance-novel-requisite mis-/lack of communication, blah blah blah, she starts to go back to Virginia with her drunk father (who has just found her).) It may even be readable, and as a free e-book, I probably could do it, but I have so much better on my Kindle right now, and no time to read any of it, so I'm going to cull it.
Bottom line: it may just not be what I'm in the mood for, but it's not quite good enough to keep me interested regardless. I'm not sure what it needs, though. While it's not dumb, it could have better conversation.
Bottom bottom line: it was free, and if you just want to chill mindlessly, that's probably an okay read for you.
I sound harsher than I may need to be, but at 10:30 at night I'm not going to analyse myself too much.
