brokeback mountain

At first when I heard broke back mountain I thought of the movie. I was not a big fan of the movie. the story has the same story line as the movie but there are some differences. this story is not what comes to mind when i think of a western. I feel like the author made them cowboys as a back drop there was no real reason for these men to be cowboys it dose not pertane to the story at all. I don't look at them as real cowboys more like two men that worked on a farm. the story kept me entertained but i would not calssify this story as a western. its a good story just not my favorite thing to read!!!
