review 1: Two teenage girls pack up a horse and go on a road-trip cross country to find a place where their beloved horse can just be free. A trip that began as a means of freeing a horse turns into a story of friendship and self discover. Slow at times, I still found myself envious of the girls and their ability to just pick up and go. And while, two young girls on a trip across country has the potential of being dark and abusive, this tale avoided these terrible events and was a more refreshing read because of it. This was an easy realistic fiction that kept me engaged throughout.
review 2: It was sweetly poetic about the love we feel for horses. I remember it (that feeling) so well! I especially loved the chapter containing the midnight ride...on someone else's ho... morerses...sans saddles or bridles or anything! Crazy fun! Yes, there was sadness and a heavy dose of reality, but this is a book I am glad I read. I almost passed it up, but decided to give it a try. It reminded me how special horses are and how much they contribute to our lives, simply by living theirs and being themselves. less
