### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Magnificent.
  

*by L***R on February 9, 2018*









  
  
    This ranks as one of the finest novels in my considerable reading experience. Not a word wasted by the author. Spare,and exquisitely beautiful in description of the characters,the themes, and the feelings of a young boy who incorporated Shane as an additional father figure. It is too limiting to simply describe this book as a western. It transcends genre. It is a splendid example of the finest of American literature. No one should miss this novel. I saw the movie as a small child around five years old,and I can still remember being fascinated by the lessons taught and explained in the movie. I still watch it when I can. However, this novel had a much more profound effect on me than the movie. It should be required reading in schools across our country. To miss this book is to miss an opportunity to read a priceless example of an American treasure.

    Honestly enjoyed it, and it was "assigned" reading!
  

*by P***Y on August 10, 2016*









  
  
    I ordered this book because it is one of the books my daughter has to read for 6th grade Lit/Comp.  This is year I have decided to read the assigned books myself so I know what she's reading, and we can talk about them and hopefully get her more engaged and have our own discussions.I did not have hope or excitement when I picked this up for the first time, which was wrong of me.  Why did I assume a western would be boring?  I don't think I had even read a western before.  From the beginning I got sucked into the mystery of Shane, and then the suspense of the story as tensions and threats grew in their town.  After finishing the book I watched the movie yesterday, but I felt the book was much better.  Perhaps because with books you can let your imagination make the characters and setting your own.I always thought westerns made people out to be the good guy/bad guy, simple as that.  But as in life, the characters in the book show that it's not so simple to judge, and a person can change.  That sometimes the good vs bad, right vs wrong judgements aren't so simple either.  The book shows a time in our history, being that it starts in 1889, and gives you a much more personal idea of what it was like back then.

    First Western Was Good
  

*by S***A on May 4, 2018*









  
  
    This was the last book (I believe) that I read for the Winter 2018 Biannual Bibliothon.This is the first Western I've ever read, and I had no idea what to expect beyond the very vague theme of "cowboys". I really enjoyed this! Shane is told from the perspective of a young boy (and at first, I thought this book would span over a larger period of his life...mostly because I can't remember the last book I read from the perspective of a kid who wasn't tasked with saving the world or something equally as wild), and the titular Shane is a mysterious man who comes to his farm and ends up staying with his family for a time. Shane has a dark past, which is only really referenced in his ability to kick anyone and everyone's ass when necessary.The villain of this novel is a rancher(?) who wants the homesteaders (like our narrator Bob and his family) off of his land; this villain is so different from the majority of villains in books I've read recently, as he's just a man and a realistic one at that.I definitely read the relationship between Bob's parents and Shane as bordering on polyamorous. I doubt this was intentional at the time, but they all seemed to fall in love with each other (and when Bob's father thought he was going to die, he gave Shane and Bob's mother his blessing).
