Chosen by a Horse by Susan Richards
3.0
3.5
The book itself was about a 3 star read but the emotions it packed at the end gave me more. I just finished reading [b:Seabiscuit: An American Legend|546489|Seabiscuit An American Legend|Laura Hillenbrand|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1320499704s/546489.jpg|17572] and wasn't ready to let go of a horse story, my childhood obsession with horses was reignited (not an obsession now though just more of a wonderful fascination). So, as this book has been on my radar it seemed a perfect time to pick it up. A nice memoir but I was more into the connection the author had with the horse Lay Me Down rather than her personal journey. It also had the power to connect me with the loss of my beloved dog several years ago which was unexpected and frankly cathartic.
