This is definitely out of my reading zone but was surprised at how much I enjoyed reading this, a western with a supernatural twist, it at first seems full of the trope of the genre but it is kind of turned on its head. Very clever. There is one scene that utterly destroyed me about 250 pages in. Devestated.
The book is pretty fast paced and easy to read. Wildly entertaining.
