Putting into Bookstogive's animal bookbox!
1/5/11 - Part of my New Years Resolution is to go back and update journal entries that I lacked on. So for The Horse Whisperer, I didn't actually read it =( I got it from the wrap it up bookbox, but I'm not really into horse books/movies. Maybe someday I'll pick up a copy and read it. I regret not giving it a chance.

Took this out of the Lions, Tigers, Bears bookbox.
If Nicholas Sparks could write well, or if "The Bridges of Madison County" had had a horse in it, the result might be something like this book. I liked reading this book despite the fact that it reads like a movie script rather than a true multi-layered story, I mean it read like a pretty good movie script most of the time. But, I am not a fan of adultery, nor of explicit sex in a book. Nor am I fan of big, cheesy, ridiculous ending scenes that are supposed to tie everything up nicely. I can see why people would like this book; it is emotional and dramatic, well-plotted and paced, even well-written for what it is. But what it is is a melodramatic, manipulative, deliberate emotional roller-coaster ride with this cowboy who is really good with horses and everyone loves him - too much - cue soap opera! (Robert Redford in the movie, looking nearly as decrepit as Clint Eastwood in Bridges of Madison County)
Put in the ABC Bookbox
Removed from bookstogive's ABC Bookbox.
This book was an ok read. I've not seen the movie. This wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I thought there would have been more about the "horse whisperer" and his methods of working with horses. Instead, it was more of a story about relationships. Some of the situations felt a little contrived and resolved themselves too quickly, almost overnight.
Adding to the General Literature VBB.
VBB is closed. Book is now available.
