The Greatest Book in the Series

This book was about a girl named Lani Hernandez, and some of her friends that all attend Chesnut Hill Boarding School. They are just coming back from Christmas Break to start a new semaster, but about two weeks into the quarter she gets a letter from her parents threatening to transfer her to another school in California if she did not get her grades up. If you have read any of the other books in this series, you know that Chesnut Hill has grades 7 and up for young riders who ride jumping horses. Throughout this book, Lani has to learn to balance out her studies, Horseback riding, and planning out a huge charity event all while convincing her parents that Chesnut Hill is the right school for her. A couple of the reasons I liked this book was because first off I ride western horses, so I can relate to the horseback riding and the charity event. Another reason was because the author gave a lot of description and details, so it gave me a very good picture in my mind. One of the only things I didn't like about this book was how short it was because I liked it so much that I wanted it to keep going. I've read other books in the series that were all as good as this book! They are all about four girls, but each book has one of them specifically as the main character. My over all opinion was that I really liked this book and it is worth reading again! I would recomend this book to mostly girls because Chesnut Hill is a all girls school, so all the main characters are girls. Over all I'd give this book a five star!

These books are amazing!!!!!!!!!!

I had rerad the Heartland series and when I foung out Lauren Brooke was coming out with a new series I knew I had to get it. The books are about 4 girls who are all from different backgrounds yet they are the best of friends. They all have an enemy named Lynsey who has a top class pony and iis a total snob. The books show how they deal with tuff decisions andget throug life just being friends. Their love of horses is also especially noticed in this book. so if you love horses you should definitaly read this book!

A Great Read!

Felicity "Honey" Harper arrives back at Chesnut Hill with a HUGE weight on her shoulders. The soft-spoken Brit has a twin brother, Sam, struggling with luekemia, and she hasn't told ANY of her best friends, not even Dylan, one of her roomates. Her parents told her that she needed to relax, but she can't! Meanwhile, Lynsey Harrison's clone, Patience Duvall, has a new Connemera pony named Moonlight Minuet (Minnie). To get "a pony with good bloodlines" on the Jr. Jumping Team, Lynsey has Patience exersizing Minnie in extreme conditions Minnie can't handle. Then, Minnie is cornered with leg injuries, and Honey helps take care of Minnie, even though she's not supposed to. But Patience doesn't care anyway-does she? If to make matters worse, Sam gets really sick and is in the ICU! And Mal, Dylan, and Lani find out about him? Will Honey find away to keep Sam a secret, help Minnie get better, and visit her sick brother in the hospital? You have to READ this!

Heart Stopping---Wistfull---Breath Taking

Honey has a twin brother, Sam, but it takes a picture following out of her photo-album and Dylan picking it up for her to tell Dylan, Lani, and Malory that she has a twin. Or she wouldn't have said anything. It all takes place after Thanksgiving break and but during break Honey had learned horrifing news about Sam. Who was sick for over a year and just when they were thinking he was going to get better the same illness came back. After Sam goes to the hospital Honey is even more determined not to tell her friends about Sam's illness. I'm not much for crying but when Honey was talking to her parents about how keeping her apart from Sam when he's in the hospital or at home was making her worry even more about her brother and how he's doing my eyes kept tearing up and I had to blink a lot so I could keep on reading. I suggest you read it, it's full of brotherly-sisterly love and hope, but LOL, you should read it as the series goes after the first two books: #1 The New Class and #2 Making Strides.

Exciting

This book was filled w. excitment ever since u opened the first couple of pages. When Lani is being forced to leave b/c of her grades she tries hard to get them up and overwhelms herself. A stress related riding crash and excuses not to get back onto her favorite pony cause a dispute among friends. When Lani shows her dad that she really belongs by putting together a rodeo day fundraiser w/ a famous pro rodeo star to give money to a charity. Will it ever work? This book kept u on the edge of your seat constantly flipping the pages:-)
