Highly recommended: Lonesome Dove series by Larry McMurtry

I love to read books that comprise a series. I enjoy being part of both the development of the characters in the story, and the development of the craft of the writer as s/he grows while writing. Consequently, I like to review books as the entire series, so that other readers like me will know whether or not they want to “get into relationship”, if you will, with the series. I’ve wanted to read Lonesome Dove for years. I kept myself from watching the mini-series, because I always like to read the book before seeing the screen adaptation. Finally, this winter, I read the series.
