Chosen by a Horse a memoir
>> A truly wonderful heartfelt inspirational book
It has been a long time since I have read a book that spoke to my very soul like this beautiful story From beginning to end a well written thought provoking story Reading it rekindled the forgotten sound of my horses munching their hay and the sight of their breath coming from their noses Susann Richards was also able to completely capture and put in words the deep longing for a lost mother s love something that never diminishes no matter how old you get
>> Amazing and highly recommended
I read this book in two great gulps half one night half the next It is that entrancing I ve always loved horses having grown up with them but I think even those who just have a love for animals will enjoy it And as several other reviewers have said I cried at the end sobbed really The book is about more than a horse it s about the author s life but not to the point that you keep thinking But what about the horse She s always there always teaching lessons with her gentle ways I do love books about real animals and I do love memoirs this was the best of both worlds The best part was that the writing was so clear and easy to read Like I said I read this 250 page book easily in two nights because it pulls you in so quickly and so thoroughly If you re looking for a memoir and/or a book about real animals you can t go wrong with this book
>> Excellent book
This is the best book I ve read in quite some time It is a quick read and it s for people who like animal stories This author has a super flare for writing about people in a very real way You will laugh and cry And you won t regret buying this book I think it would make a great gift for an animal lover too
