Riding Lessons by Sara Gruen

1.0

After listening to The Paying Guests, which would merit *maybe* 3 stars, I can only think “Riding Lessons” must have been an early outing for Gruen, because it’s terrible. The two women in the first books had some serious flaws, but this Annemarie is pretty despicable. Not every character has to be Mother Teresa, but a main character should have some growth or development, no?
Perhaps the audiobook did the book a disservice as the main character’s pissed off, frantic voice sometimes replaced by whining, poor-me pleading set my teeth on edge.
PS. I loved Water for Elephants, also in audiobook format.
