Summary: 5 Stars
The Horse Whisperer. Just the title brings back all the thoughts I had while reading the book. It was a book written well which made me feel as if I was wrapped up in the happenings. As if I was there. Experiencing it. I am a totally horse crazy person and when I had to read a book for my book report, I was sure I'd like it because it had horses in it. I don't know if I actually did like it or not but one thing I know is that I was really moved by the plot and especially by the emotions in the story.
The first line "There was death at its beginning as there would be death at its end" pretty much summed up the book. The beginning was great with a melancholy and tragic atmosphere, as if it was fate that something horrible would happen.
What I thought made the book such a success and a bestseller was the fact that it would appeal to almost everybody. It had no particular type of genre. It had romance, humour, adventure, horses and most of all, feeling in the book.
Although I didn't quite like the ending, I would approve of it as it fitted in with the theme of fate in the story. Its sad tragic ending was suitable as it was the mood of the book that something bad would happen.
I would recommend it as a satisfying read which would be a good use of timeBook Review: A summer read - no more, no less
Summary: 3 Stars
The Horse Whisperer is a quick read romance in the vein of The Bridges of Madison County. The author spins a more detailed yarn then Bridges, and the character development is richer. In short, this book is a good summer read when content is not as important as entertainment. I expect the movie will be the sameBook Review: A two-day read, Madison County with "horse sense" philosophy
Summary: 4 Stars
If you liked The Bridges of Madison County, you'll
probably like The Horse Whisperer by Nicholas Evans.
The Horse Whisperer has much more going for it. Yes,
it has a love story, it is tragic, but it also is
philosophical and it expands beyond human experiences
to those of other living creatures. I hear it won't be
long before we see this novel come to film. Although
I'd like to see the film when it comes, I bet the book
is better. In The Horse Whisperer, an English born editor
of a swanky magazine attempts to right a wrong that her
13-year-old daughter has endured. Her actions profoundly
affect her, her daughter, her husband and one other man:
A man who, through a horse, changes all of their lives
forever. Pick up the book and enjoy. I finished 450 pages
in less than three days.Book Review: A very enjoyable book filled with emotion and inspiration!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is my favorite! Nicholas Evans has a great way of illustrating a story through words. I became really involved in the story as if I were a part of it. I highly recommend this book to all animal lovers, and especially people who do not understand animals!
