Buffalo Coat,

This review is from: Buffalo Coat (Washington State University Press Reprint) (Paperback)
If you enjoy skillfully-crafted character studies, this is the perfect book for you. You will fall in love with the town and people depicted in this excellent read. My only disappointment with this book was that it ended. I found myself missing the characters and wishing I had lived then and could have known them in person. My daughter actually introduced me to the book when it was on her required reading list for an English class when she was in high school. It is a book worth having in your collection to read over and over again every few years. When you read it again, it's like meeting up with an old friend who you haven't seen in years, but can converse with like you had never been apart.

Captivating book that grabs you on the first page and doesn't let you go! Realistic tales of love and loss that hit close to home. Wonderful when read with her autobiographical collection of essays "Chain of Hands".

A great story of a town and it's people growing up,
By J. Lientz (Idaho, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Buffalo Coat (Washington State University Press Reprint) (Paperback)
I was trapped in the story by chapter one. I enjoyed being in the moment of watching a western town begin and grow along with the characters of the town. I fell in love with Jenny, she was a modern day women who should of lived her life in the 21st century- the story would have ended differently. The characters were well developed and the story was so enthralling - I wanted for a moment to escape modern day craziness to Opportunity. After finishing the book I enjoyed researching the real life characters in which this story was based. Read this book, you'll not put it down.
