I really debated if I should just DNF this one after Walt and Vic have sex, he's very awkward about it afterwards and Vic's reaction is literally:
["How about I make it easy for you? We'll just call it rape. I raped you. There. Do you feel better?" [...] "And if you don't get dressed I may do it again.
I really begin to loathe the objectification of and casual sexism about every (in Walt's assessment) attractive woman (read: she's most likley younger than him and has long legs) he encounters and then they also all throw themselves at him - even if they are
After reading the first three books within a week I'm taking a break from the series here. The only hope I have that this is might become a bit better again (at least in regards to the setting and the regular Wyoming characters) is the switch back to Walt's home turf. But I can't say I'm looking forward to

Kindness Goes Unpunished is the 3 book in the Longmire series. Walt and Henry have driven to Philly for Henry's exhibit. Shortly after they arrive, Cady is attacked and ends up in the ICU in a coma. It's a Moretti-clan race to find who hurt her and why.
It's a very interesting book, and as other authors have found, moving two characters from their home can be difficult on the book, as the characters are part of their settings. This happens in this book, with Walt sticking out and not quite fitting into the setting in Philly. While I know he was going for accuracy, Cady took far too long to get better and the doctors kept hammering home how coma's aren't like the movies. And some scenes were unnecessarily graphic in nature.

I really enjoyed the 1st two books in this series. This book got really gross. I disliked the way relationships developed and it didn't have the Western setting I love.
