Book Reviews of Flying Changes (Annemarie Zimmer, Bk 2)

A great follow-up to "Riding Lessons". Just make sure you read them in order - there are references that won't make since unless you have already read "Riding Lessons".

I really enjoyed this. It's by the author of Water For Elephants, she writes really well. This story revolves around horses and is about a mother who was a competitive rider and her daughter who wants to ride in the Olympics. A love story is intertwined and the man is a vet involved in horse rescue. A really good story about a family and the inevitability of change.

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are three dimensional and the setting of horses and jumping is mixed with the feelings of a woman coming to terms with her life, her daughter and her lover. The main character is vulnerable, spunky and emotional which I really enjoyed.

A quick summer read, not too taxing at any level. There is one passage at the very end that I loved. If you've ever ridden you'll recognize the part where our heroine is reading her horse's ears. It took me back to one of the grumpier animals I used to ride who always said "NO WAY" with his ears.

This is a great sequel to the first book. For anyone involved with horses it is a very enjoyable read--I finished it in a day or so.

Like it.

Learned a lot about how dedicated and wealthy you need to be to own horses. This book has all the elements of real life from joy to worry to grief. It follows the book, Riding Lessons, with enough detail that if you hadn't read it, you are not confused. Worth your time!

I think this book is better than Riding Lessons, the first Annemarie Zimmer book. It has everything: drama, humor, romance. A thoroughly enjoyable read!

Couldn't put it down!

This book is an easy read.

great story

I loved this book...i finished it in a day and could not put it down. I wish that there was another one after it.

Awesome book. Follow up to Riding Lessons. This time Annemarie has to sit back as Eva grows up. Lots of emotional things happen towards the end of the book. Find out if Annemarie will end up with her true love Dan.

Very good book a little too tidy an ending but overall satisfying conclusion to Annemarie Zimmer's story.

This was a fun, quick read. Great for those of us who once (still dream of) rode. It's fun to re-live old memories.

This book was excellent, This as the other books of Sara Gruen are not the normally the books i read but I was impressed with this book.

If you love horses this is a great novel to read.

This is a great sequel to "Riding Lessons"! If you loved Riding Lessons, you will absolutely enjoy this book!

This is the sequel to Riding Lessons another one of Sara Gruen's books.

The sequel to "Riding Lessons" a poignat and exhilarating tale of embracing life and galloping free from a remarkable new voice in American Literature.

Romance and Horses -- Great Story

Wonderful - good read

I loved this book! It is a sequel to "Riding Lessons" but can easily be read without reading the other one first.

This is the sequel to the book "Riding Lessons" It is very good!

Very nice horse story adventure.

A good read.

Sequel to "Riding Lessons.........Twenty years after her competitive riding career died, Annemarie Zimmer worries that her realtionship with the man she loves is off course, and fears that daughter Eva's own dreams of Olymipc glory will carry her far from home....and into harm's way.

It is a time of change at Maple Brook, when fears must be saddled and broken. And one ermarkable family must learn how to deal with Flying Changes.....A great read, I couldn't put it down.......Another success for Sara Gruen.
