The Heartland books are a fun read, and they’re pretty quick to get through for me. You get your horses and your heartache from Heartland. These books are pretty steady, all continuing the story of Amy, Lou, Ty, Jack and the assorted horses.
The writing and subject matter are obviously intended for children, and can be a bit clunky at times for individuals with a higher reading level.

This one was more middle of the road. I did like the discussion around illness and family caregivers. I liked the little bit of positive interaction between Amy and Ashley. The plot itself isn't as engaging as some of the others, though.

I thought this cover looked familiar. I don't really recall if this was good or not but I picked it up because of horses!

This was less fluffy than I expected it to be for a Middle-Grade book! I remember seeing the CBC show episode based on this novel and thinking it was just okay. The novel did this chunk of the story in SUCH a better way! I love that this one touches on different forms of mental illness and I love that Ty takes a more supportive role.
