I have to 3rd (4th? 5th?) Lonesome Dove. I've read a lot of books in my life, but it still hangs in there as my favorite novel. I've re-read it several times and listened to the audiobook several times. (The audiobook is a treat, by the way. It's read by the actor Lee Horsley, and he does a wonderful job.) My cats are named Augustus and Lorena.
