5.0

Changed from 4.5 ⭐ to 5 ⭐ because I can't stop thinking about this book.

This book had everything. Lone women. Creepy old timey cowboys. Montana.

This book is atmospheric to the hilt, and a little bit absurd in parts, like David Lynch meets the Montana Hi-line. The whole book felt surreal and ghostly. I went to college in Montana and the small, disappearing towns across the mountains and prairies are chilly reminders of what was once a booming wild west. There's a lot of room for the imagination to run and ghosts to appear.

There were times where the weaving storylines were hard to follow but it didn't take long to catch back on.
