As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

Shamrock Stable: No Horse Wanted By Shannon Kennedy
There is a lot the author packs into this story. Would I buy it for my high school, no. Okay for personal libraries, yes. Involved in the story is animal abuse, rescuing animals, friends, track, dating, working and having your own horses and multiple horses at that. We go into the world of cholic and horse lice and other parasites. The story is okay and the main character comes off a bit much in the whiney department.
