The Bitterroots by C.J. Box

3.0


I really enjoyed this book. It was a nice switch up from my normal thrillers and my first book with a Western theme. The stetting of a burning Montana really added to the suspense and storyline. I appreciated all the female MC’s especially since the author is male; he wrote them very well.

There were some points in the story that I felt like information was just known by the MC instead of being told to them. It felt like Cassie was searching for people like Lindy and Haak but they were never mentioned prior. How did Cassie know to look for them if she was never tipped off?

Overall, I can overlook those small details and the slightly disheartening ending and say I liked it. I would love to read more books set in the Wild West.
