thebigq's review against another edition

While the main characters were compelling, I got lost in tracking the (many) people who live in the town of Paradise, made it hard to understand nuances or know who was actually significant. I learned a lot of facts about 19th-csntury Wyoming and norms based on race/class/gender, including if ones family had formerly been enslaved or not. About third of the way in, I flipped to the end and read the last chapter, which seemed to tie things up nicely, but this book was not for me right now.

I really liked Spring and her demand for others' respect.  I haven't read Regan & Colt's book, but this still worked just fine.

Spring Rain is a wonderful character and I'm so glad to see her in her own book while still getting to hang out with Regan and Anna!
