Breaking Free (Heartland #3)
Pegasus is all Amy has left of her past, but he's steadily growing weaker. Amy's trying to care for him and hold Heartland together. She's trying to do just what her mother would have done, but everything is beginning to unravel. It will take all Amy's courage to let go of her mother's legacy, but it is the only way she will break free and find her own.
Breaking Free is one of those books in the Heartland series that I both love and hate, because I can go from crying to smiling in the space of about a page. It's the first book where we see Amy letting go of what Marion did at Heartland and becoming her own person and running it in her own way. Even though Amy's reactions are childish at times, she is still a teenager, and perhaps in hindsight, for now, I'm getting too old to be dealing with that. Though I'll keep re-reading them, maybe read

Heavy on the angst here!But on the same page I think it's important and interesting to discuss real life situations like death in books, even when the book is written for children. So maybe Lauren Brooke has hit on something there.I still found the style of writing in this book to be a little off-putting. It does not flow, but the
Read all the Heartland books when I was younger and remember really loving them and harrassing my parents to buy more and more. Re read them recently and still love them as much as I did before!As they're aimed at younger audience they are not really challenging, rather a quick and easy but enjoyable read for hores lovers!
I enjoyed the first few of these as a kid.
