I was pleasantly surprised by this one, it was better than I thought it would be. The story has a very deliberate pace (indicative of unrushed lifestyle along the border, I suppose) and the characters were intriguing. I like how a little bit of the dialoge is in Spanish. But toward the end the detailed landscape description was tiring. I wish I could have had more insight as to what was going on inside John Grady Cole's head, rather that waiting to see how is actions panned out.
