Chasing Painted Horses by Drew Hayden Taylor
3.0

A slow simmering story about a girl who through her drawing of a horse, changes the lives of the people who befriend her.
This was a slow read for me as I wasn’t as captivated by it as others. It was a great story and I enjoyed the characters. I found it almost melodic and that may have lulled me into a slower pace in reading it.
I liked how the book goes back and forth from past to present. I enjoyed the character development and the way we learn about each one and what motivates them without villainizing them.
All in all a good read.
