I started and finished Hombre by Elmore Leonard today. It was a perfect vacation read. |

Just cracked open Miami Blues by Charles Willeford and their is an introduction by Elmore Leonard. How's that for continuity? |

I am almost finished with Miami Blues and then it's either on to A Man Named Doll by Johnathan Ames or another Elmore Leonard book. I really loved Hombre. Does anyone have any recommendations for my second Elmore Leonard book? I guess there's also the possibility of more Hoke Mosely as well... |

I’ve only read a few Leonard books. La Brava was awesome. I’ve really been meaning to read Cuba Libre too. |

I think I'm in the mood for another Western. Right now I'm leaning towards Valdez is Coming. I'm also considering starting the Raylon Givens series because the first book is only $2 on Kindle. |

Valdez is good but his short westerns are the best things he wrote. For his contemporary novels I like Rum Punch. |

You sure won’t go wrong by reading them tho. 3:10 to Yuma is pretty boss if you’re still wanting a short western. |

I switched gears and am now reading Cockfighter by Willeford |

But thank you all for the recommendations. I'll probably get to most of them eventually. I don't read much when I'm not on vacation and I'm hoping to change that. |

Finished Cockfighter this evening. It was excellent. I think I'm going to round out the vacation with another Willeford book. I just need to decide which one. |

I just did a search and my posts appear to be the first mention of Charles Willeford. You all need to check him out. Cockfighter and Miami Blues were both excellent. |

in bleak moments, days, weeks, or generations, we must grasp what is good. and this thread has reminded me that french theorists have fallen and remain out of fashion |
