I agree that at time some of the "classic's" feel like a lit class. ( I'm looking at you Henry James). There is a time when I just want to hear a story. Good versus evil. Guy gets the girl. My grandfather loved westerns and I was given many by him. My back room bookshelf is filled with Louis L'Amour. Some of his non-western stuff is good also. Question; favorite Sackett?Let's get away from all this highbrow stuff.
Right now I've gone back to some old favorites and am re-reading the Sackett series of book by Louis L'Amour.
