Horse Heaven
I'm currently reading the book Horse Heaven. This book is about the lives of horses, their jockeys, and all the people involved in the daily lives of horse racing. It gives in insight to the everyday lives of the people that own race horses. It follows many people, some who have had famous race horses, who go on to the high stakes races and then the others who have horses that fail and never win a single race. This is a great book so far, i'm about 240 pages into it and i'm loving it so much! I really enjoy this book because I'm a rider, but it offers great stories for pretty much anyone! This book took me to many different scenarios and places and i got to see horses from completely different time periods in one book. Great read.

Over the winter break I finished reading the classic story by H.G Wells, The WAr of the Worlds. In my last post I talked about how the people of the town started noticing that the the meteors falling from the sky weren't all good. People are now realizing the the aliens are trying to take over and the army is sent in to control the aliens. The humans weapons have no affect on the alien machines. And the human race is at a major risk. As the aliens make their march toward the major town of london the army makes many attempts to control them, but only finds themselves failing over and over again. Will the aliens be stopped or will they take over, I really encourage you to read this book it's a very fast read and it keeps you interested.
