Hi, Cait, glad you got it. I love horse stories. I've been an unabashed reader of anything that features horses prominently in the story, or is about horses, beginning way back when I first learned to read as a horse-crazy kid.
Ever since I joined Bookshare several years ago I've downloaded and read all the horse-related books that have entered the collection, and kept a list of the titles. I started by looking through all the titles in the animal books category, and finding all the ones that were about horses. I added to that group all the titles where I knew horses featured prominently in the story, like Dick Francis mysteries and K.M. Peyton's books. I also check regularly the titles and synopses for new books that are added to the collection.
Then, a new Bookshare member posted a request when he joined Bookshare early this year for titles of any horse books, as he loves horses and horse stories too. So I sent my list to him. Since then, as he found found books that I hadn't found, or I found new ones he hadn't heard of, we've kept each other up to date. I'm sure I've missed titles, as I don't check westerns out very well, I rarely read romances, and I suspect I may have missed some in the fantasy genre as well. Any suggestions of titles to add are most welcome! smile.
I love the idea of doing a list of all the dog books and maybe one on guide dog books. If you decide to do that, I'd be glad to help.
