I would have loved this book at eight.
It was very interesting as far as horse husbandry and attitudes towards animal care/cruelty are concerned. But it felt rather heavy handed, reading it as an adult.
The audiobook might be to blame for my lack of enjoyment: while the narrator has a lovely voice and excellent diction, his pacing is distractingly slow and the editing leaves to be desired (the end of ch44 in particular)
