I can't.I'm going to put this to rest. Somewhere between Booker running down the street while screaming "NO!" in reaction to the thoughts in his brain (much like a five year old) and the 52% mark, I lost the ability to take this seriously.I vaguely remember liking this in the beginning. It had potential. But right now I intensely dislike everything about this book. There are other reviews that do a much better job of actually reviewing this. Unfortunately, I suffered from an allergic reaction to the contents of this book that made my brain shut down entirely. I'm having trouble remembering words.I'd imagine that if you like cowboys, machismo, superbly macho manly men who have been emotionally stunted by all their manliness, and the inability to communicate then you will love this.I think it was steamy? I stopped reading when all the sex started, because at that point I was so done with everything that I was driving myself insane by picking apart all the sextences.I also think it was angsty. However, I couldn't muster the ability to care about anything. I'm going to pretend that the book ended around 40% when Booker discovered self worth and forcibly removed Jed from his life.DNF
