A review by littletaiko
The Homesman by Glendon Swarthout

3.0

Western or pioneer stories are not usually my kind of book, but this one really grabbed my interest early as the main character was such a strong female - very tough and resourceful. The first two thirds of the book were so enjoyable that I was heading towards giving this book a 4 or 5 star rating. Then it all falls apart in the last third. It's almost like somebody else wrote that section. It still ended up being an overall good book, but I just couldn't help but feel like a bait and switch occurred.
