review 1: I've always enjoyed the movie Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken, so I thought I'd take a look at the memoirs of Sonora Webster to see how similar the movie is to her actual life story. There isn't as much of the romance angle as in the movie, and of course some of the details were different, but it was pretty entertaining. Sonora's voice is light, humorous, and hopeful, and even though the book spends a lot of time with technical details (like the different types of jumps the horses could do and building the towers and stuff), it still moves along pretty well and doesn't get bogged down at all. Really interesting.
review 2: Like other reviewers, I became interested in this because of the movie, Wild Hearts Can't be Broken. I found the book on Amazon for around $75 b
... moreut Barnes and Noble had it for only $12.99 and it was worth every penny. What a truly inspiring and amazing story. I wish she had shared more about the development of her relationship with Al and wish there was an update on the rest of her life. Nevertheless, I am a fan and recommend this memoir. less
