hot dog

luv it!!!!!!!

One of my favorites...

I thought this was a wonderful book. I could hardly put it down. The movie did not do the book justice, and it changed the ending in a horrible way. The author had done a much better job on the storyline!

One book that I want forget

The Horse Whisperer is a truly remarkable peace of literature, no matter the age of the reader. Nicholas Evans leads us through a reality check in what matters most in life when everyday illusions are shed. On her search to give her daughter back the horse that once lifted her life, the mother finds even that even in an amniable wedlock, she has been robbed of true passion in her life. Passion is found, and her daughters youth is once restored as it should be. The style of writing in this novel is one that invokes a mutitude of questions that lies within each one of us.

I loved this book

This book was so moving and such a beautiful story that you will read it in one sitting.

great

this book is one of the best books i have read. it is a bout a girl and her horse. i really thought this book was great except for the ending i really didnt like the end and i was upset about it and i wish it ended differently but other then that i recommened this book to people 13 and up

Good Read!

I LOVE Nicholas Evans! He writes such beautiful stories of love and life. Smoke Jumper is by far my favorite of his books but this one is good too, as is the Loop.

AWESOME BOOk!!!

This book is called The Horse Whisperer by Nicholas Evans. It¿s about a girl, her horse, an accident and the recovery. The girl is Grace and her horse¿s name is Pilgrim. One morning after snow has just fallen, she and her friend go on a trail ride. While out, her friends horse slips down a slope and crashes into Grace, all four of them falling into the road. A truck coming down the road tries to stop but can¿t in time. Grace¿s friend and her friend¿s horse both die in the accident. Grace lives, is in a coma for awhile and has to get part of her leg cut off. Pilgrim is almost put down but Annie, Grace¿s mom won¿t let them. His wounds eventually heal but he is emotionally scarred. Grace has recovered enough to go home by Christmas. Pilgrim is also moved back to his stable, but lashes out at anyone who tries to go near him. He lives in a stall that is never cleaned out and they shove food and water through a small opening in the bottom of the door. Annie calls a trainer to come and see Pilgrim and help him. The trainer, Tom is disgusted with what he sees, the horse¿s living condition and the way the barn is run. He goes away without helping. He is supposedly the best and Annie is to stubborn to let him just say ¿no.¿ She drives out to Montana from New York, with the horse and her daughter Grace. Grace didn¿t want to go and wanted the horse to be sold. They come unannounced and this time Tom is forced to look at the horse. In the end he decides to help, but now it¿s more than just the horse¿s problem. Annie and Grace are having problems too. Read the book to find out how everything works out. The book was so exciting to read. There was something happening all the time. Annie was yelling at someone, Grace was having trouble with her leg or Tom was working with a horse. I definitely felt like I was in the book because I could understand just about everything that was going on. The main conflict, which was getting Pilgrim better did interest me. I wanted to know if Tom could fix him. The character¿s were very realistic. They were very normal and didn¿t have anything very odd about them or any special powers that made them not so real. The books ending was pretty satisfying although there was one part that was disappointing. I won¿t give it away but it had to do with Tom and I thought it almost ruined the story because it seemed so unreal. The author wrote the book in third person. Sometimes the author gave a characters thoughts or opinions on what was happening in the story. There weren¿t too many hard words in the story and I could understand everything that was going on, but there were a few tough words that I didn¿t know. There wasn¿t anything really unique about the author¿s writing. It was basically the same as other authors. The author used a lot of dialogue but not so much description. There was a lot of tone, when Annie got mad, when Grace was happy and when people were relieved. I would give this book a nine out of ten. It was a great book but there was one part that kinda ruined it for me and didn¿t make sense. I would recommend this book to people fourteen and up. Probably girls and people who want to read a book about a family having a hard time together and a horse who has been through a lot.

Fair

This book began and ended on a sad note. I finished reading it only because I kept hoping it would get better. It was full of unnecessary detail which I skimmed over and it ended rather abruptly. There are lots of better reads out there.

Animals Can Understand Humans

The Horse Whisperer is an outstanding story! This story is about a horse that got hit by a semi when his owner was riding him. This happened in the middle of a snowy, winter morning. He then became very crazy and was scared of everybody. The Horse Whisperer is a man that can talk to horses. This guy took months teaching and talking to the horse telling him everything will be okay. At first, the horse wanted to hurt the guy because he was scared of him. Then, after awhile of the whisperer talking to him; the horse wasn't afraid of him anymore. The horse still didn't know what to think about other people yet though. He just knew that he could trust the whisperer, because he could talk to him. The horse was a beautiful, black, quarter horse that had no reason to die. This story will give your mind a wild ride. In my opinion, horse lovers would like this book a lot. I am a 16 year-old girl that loves horses. I understood the story thoroughly. I didn't have one problem trying to get through this book. I highly recommend this book to horse lovers and trainers. This book could easily put a stop to abuse of animals. If you have a heart, you'll love the story.

slow and steady didn't win my attention

I am a student and I had to read this book for class. It was literally painful to read this book. It starts out slow BUT HALFWAY THROUGH!!!....it's still boring. Don't let the title fool you into thinking it is going to be a mystical and exctiting read. This book ultimately though long, was empty.

The Horse Wiperer

I thought that The Horse Wisperer is one of the best books I have ever read. I picked up this book thinking it was going to be about horses but when I started to read it I found out it was kind of a love story but yet, I still loved it and coming from me that says alot because unless it is a real adventure to i do not read the book. I LOVED THIS BOOK! READ IT! YOU'LL LOVE IT!

Wonderful, Captivating Book

I am only a junior high student, and I LOVE this book! This book held my attention. I love the way Evans linked all the characters together. He has a great writing style, I wish more authors wrote like he does. I was disappointed with the ending, (even though it made me cry), but it is an excellent book overall.

Awesome Book
