Abby was shocked to learn that Ava and Olivia are attending Saddlehill Academy. They seem excited to befriend her and happy to join the team. But things might not be all that they seem.Abby's too busy worrying about her grades to deal with more team drama. If her grades don't improve in the next few weeks, her father will pull her from the riding team. Abby will be devastated if that happens, especially as she's waiting for word on the clinic from Sasha Silvers and Heather Fox.
My Thoughts: I love this series for the horses, the drama, the friendships, and the romance. Abby and Mila spend more time together in this book and couldn't be cuter. Even though I don't like the reasons, I love how the team starts coming together. I loved seeing Abby and Emery at their house and more family time due to Thanksgiving. I really love learning about the characters from the Canterwood Crest series. The drama in this book ends on a wicked Canterwood cliff-hanger. I need more books in this series!
Cover Thoughts: Perfect. I love these covers

Library Recommendation: A must have series for your school and public libraries
I'm chatting with the author later this week, be sure to check back in!
I've always been curious about this series, thanks for the review If you like books about horses and horseback riding, Darby Karchut has a book coming out called The Horse Who Carries the Stars. Happy MMGM and hope you have a lovely week
ReplyDeleteI've seen this series in the library but did not know much about it. Thanks for giving us some background and for featuring your review on MMGM this week.
ReplyDeleteThis must be a good series if you're still into it at book 4 and want more. I think kids really like stories involving horses. Me too.
ReplyDeleteTeen drama---I remember it well. Some kids will really like the drama and the horses! Thanks for being a part of MMGM.
ReplyDeleteI loved horse books as a kid. Teen drama, not so much (there was a lot less of that in the books when I was a kid--my horse books were more Marguerite Henry & Black Beauty, less series. I might be old :D).
ReplyDeleteI generally don't read contemporary fiction, but I know horse stories are always popular (not sure from your review how much the horses feature!) However I am not a fan of romance in middle grade books, so it's great to read your review to know this book is not for me! :) Am I right in thinking Mila is a girl? Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHorse stories are always popular for middle-grade girls. This sounds like a good one. Thanks for the review.
