Dressage Chronicles

Postby Kelo » Mon Nov 07, 2016 10:18 pm

The newest book in the Dressage Chronicles series -- the third book, titled The Right Girl For The Job -- is out now.

I just bought it via Kindle. Can't wait to read it! :)

Then again, maybe I ought to reread the first two first before I read the new one..........hmmm..........

Thanks for the heads up! I enjoyed the others...(as a light plane or bathtub read).

I am going back to re-read the first 2 before I start the third. They are about a young woman who goes off to become a working student. They are well written and hilarious and I definitely recommend them for a bit of Light reading!

I love them! I started the 3rd one last night and had to make myself stop and go to sleep.
I've read the first 2 about three times now.
It's easy reading and written by a dressage rider, with a bit of drama added in each for a story. I love the true horsiness of them :)

As mentioned, the heroine becomes a working student for a dressage trainer. The usual compliment of crazy characters and dastardly doings, all intertwined with the extraordinary mundaneness of life at a horse barn. Lots of good scenes with the horses, shows, and dressage. It is light fiction, written by an actual accomplished dressage rider.

I have reread them several times and enjoyed them! Thinking aboyt saving Book 3 for this weekend...

I'm happily binge reading my way through these at the moment :)

Apart from finding them very entertaining, I'm finding some of the dressage training imagery really quite useful! She really does know her stuff!

I just finished the latest one last night. I agree she does know her stuff and is a fun storyteller.

Very relaxing and fun reading for us!

This apparently isn't available on Kobo, but I'm definitely interested now so I'll have to find a way to read them. Wasn't aware they existed until this post, so thank you!
