$The Quiet Western Masterpiece Everyone Missed In this video, I’m announcing our April selection for the Lone Star Book Club—News of the World by Paulette Jiles. This is a quiet, reflective Western set in the aftermath of the Civil War—one that raises an interesting question: is this a quiet masterpiece? If you’ve been thinking about joining the book club, this is a great place to start. It’s short, accessible, and packed with meaning beneath the surface. 📬 Contact & Collaboration Voxer: rlray1584 Email: randyray@gmail.com 📚 April Reading Schedule (Fridays) Week 1 (April 1–10): Chapters 1–3 Week 2 (April 11–17): Chapters 4–6 Week 3 (April 18–24): Chapters 7–9 Week 4 (April 25–30): Chapters 10–end 🤠 How to Participate Read along each week at your own pace Share your thoughts in the comments Join the discussion and be part of the Lone Star Book Club 🎥 BookTubers Mentioned in This Video @BookChatWithPat8668 @JamesRuchala @saintdonoghue 📖 About the Book News of the World follows Captain Jefferson Kidd, a traveling news reader in post-Civil War Texas, who agrees to escort a young girl across the frontier back to her family.
