SuitabookNew Beginnings (Heartland #18)
Lauren Brooke
- Reading
- If grief or strained friendships feel significant, read alongside the child and pause after Amy meets Carey to discuss assumptions, listening and whether caring for a place can coexist with moving on.
- Themes
- Grief and remembrance: Amy hears that her mentor has died and is invited to visit his granddaughter, Carey. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Understanding people beyond animals: Amy is comfortable with horses but initially assumes Carey wants help with her mustang, while Carey appears to avoid her. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Change and moving on: Amy’s visit leads her to see her own future differently; a reader quotes the idea that loving a person or place does not prevent leaving. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- Pay particular attention to grief and loss.
