Hi Everyone Anyone else reading this book? It's so good, I'm hooked. It doesn't feel like your reading a horse book that's to much to take in. It's just the right balance of a story and horses too!  If you're reading it, what page are you on? I'm on Page 63, start of Chapter 6. I bought it at Monty's demo and really glad that I did. I think the authors were at a wedding for that demo, but I have met them before. Sarah |

Finished reading it a couple of weeks ago and loved it. It made me laugh and cry. I found it very inspirational.

One of those 'can't put down' books. It came on the Tuesday and I;d finished it on Friday. Amazing story - everyone should read it.

Definitely can't put it down. I carried it around with me for 24 hours and read it at every available opportunity.
Enjoy the rest of it Sarah!

I got that book at Towerland and read it in 3 hours, it is one of those books that you really can't put down.

I read it and loved it!! It was then very surreal to have Adam Goodfellow over for dinner six months later after myself and Rennie had had him out for the day to work with us and our horses.
I have since spent more time with him helping another friend with her pony and also more time working on TC's mounting issues (which Adam helped me "cure") - he and Nicole are both amazing people....

Great book  Read it twice, passed it on to loads of people, bought it for someone last Christmas. I found it so interesting when they recalled their pre IH ways of doing things. They come across as such lovely, down to earth people. |

I have just read it for the 3rd time and still got lots out of it - i knew Nicole when she was in her BHS days we used to ride together at the riding school she talked about in the book:-) They are wonderful people and the yard they are at now is great for courses - apart from the lack of an indoor school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I read it about 3 years ago and laughed and cried too. I lent it to my mates to read and of course nobody can remember who had it last and where it is now etc...  |

Happy New Year!
Well, I'm on chapter 15 or 16 I think! I've spent Xmas and New Year in Scotland and have had the time to sit down and read.....must keep it up! I am finding the book fantastic, but loose track of where some of the horses came from!
I bought the book at a dema last year, and hadn't seen it before then. It was the cover that caught my eye, how could I have missed it before?!
