re: Walt Longmire mystery series - Craig Johnson

I can't recommend this book series enough.

It's vastly different than the tv series, but you will recognize certain plots during episodes if you read a few books.

I find the book longmire to be more entertaining and less perpetually in a bad mood than the tv longmire.

Johnsons style takes some getting used to as he doesn't use said at all. He won't say he said, or she said, which, to me, at times is confusing but you learn to recognize who's speaking.

Overall it's a great series. It's probably a little formulaic but at close to 20 books it would be hard not to be. Check out the first one and I'm sure you'll be hooked.
