Customer Reviews

I love TB books!

I haven't read this yet. I'm glad that the series is getting back to racing. But I think that the books should be way longer. Also, there should only be a bit of romance. I want to hear all about the HORSES instead! I agree with those who think Joanna Campbell should write the books again. She's a better writer than the other people. Oh yeah, Sierra was not gelded to my knowledge and I have all the books except #35. I am 16 and I don't care if the books are out of my age range. I LOVE TB books!!!

ok, but could've been better

At least it's back to focusing on racing. but all these authors are too confusing and make too many mistakes. I mean, how many how many times has Townsend Pride been said to be Wonder's Son? And why don't they ever talk about Wonder? Or Pride? Cindy and Glory just magically disapeared. If Joanna Campbell would just come back...

Thoroughbred is GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey I love reading thoroughbred but I wish Joanna would come back writting it. I can answer all your commonly asked questions!!! First off in Thoroughbred #31 it says when their in N.Y CINDY is attending a school of riding or somthing of the sort! Sam and Tor are married and have an eventing(??????????? Why eventing I don't Know!)stable called Wisper wood. Brad and Lavinia have a son named Parker and he is nice but they are still the snobby people they always were! I am glad there getting into racing! But Christina and Dylan and Keven and Mel well I think Kissing Going out in eight grade is a little much. But other wise I guess it GREAT!
