Lauren Brooke (Author)

Book Description

Age Level: 9 and up | Series: Heartland

As Amy becomes more committed to showjumping, she has less time to care for the horses at Heartland. Amy must deal with real issues: What will she choose as her priorities? Who does she want to be?

Amy's dreams have come true. She is still caring for damaged horses like her mom, and now she's showing in high-level jumping competitions like her dad. It's all possible because of Storm, the talented dapple gray thoroughbred that was a gift from her father. But having it all can take a lot out of you, and Amy is realizing that she can't keep up with her work at Heartland and dedicate herself to the show world. Storm needs more attention, and so do the other horses. Sooner or later, she'll have to make a choice.

Sooner or later is a great book! The whole series is! This one is about Storm, Amy's powerful dappled grey show horse. Amy is spreading herself thin by all the work she is doing at Heartland and at shows. Amy is showing Storm and continuing her work at Heartland. Amy is telling her self she can do it all and have it all. But having it all is hard. So sooner or later Amy is going to have to make a decision between Storm, her beloved horse or Heartland her beloved home.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book Yet!, August 18, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Sooner or Later (Heartland #12) (Mass Market Paperback)

Amy is working hard, getting up early in the morning and sleeping late at night. This has been going on ever since Tim, Amy's father bought her and Lou Storm. Storm is a beautiful Trakehner x Thoroughbred, and was bred for competition. He is completely unsuited to a place like Heartland. With so many horses to help at Heartland, Amy starts stressing out to the point of where she almost hit a horse. In the meantime, she was slowly working with Willow, a 14hh pony who was beaten since she was weaned. Amy is the only one she truly trusts. While at a show, Willow gets an injury and won't let anyone near her. Amy realizes then that she can't keep going on like this with Storm and Heartland. The rest is up to you to find out, and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Sooner or Later (Heartland #12) (Mass Market Paperback)

Sooner or later is a very good book. This book has lots of emotions in it. Trust me I even cried. It is sad but very interesting. If you are a person who loves to ride, read or just love animals and horses than this is the book. This book is part of the serie "Heartland". So if you've read this book I suggest you read the whole serie!
This book is about Amy and her show jumper, Storm. Amy has a BIG decision to make: enter the show jumping life like her father or stay at Heartland to help damaged and abused horses. What will she pick? Read the book to know the answer.

Have fun reading!
