This week's world is that of novelist Barbara Morgenroth's Bittersweet Farm.
Barbara Morgenroth has been writing professionally for many years, riding horses
for even longer.
Her
series, Bittersweet Farm, is home to seventeen-year-old
sisters Talia Margolin and Greer Swope. They often have a contentious and competitive relationship but
share a passion for horses. Action and intense emotion fill Talia’s and
Greer’s world as they leave high school behind. Will their new trainer, Lockie
Malone, be a part of their future? Will Cameron Rafferty, jumper rider, present
an irresistible temptation? Which horses will carry the young women to the top?
This series will captivate and intrigue teens and adults alike.
Barbara, if I fell into your books, what would I
hear and smell and feel?
The
clean scent of country air, herbaceous hay and fresh pine shavings. Either
you would feel excited or appalled by the level of passion at which Talia and Greer live their
lives at Bittersweet Farm.
Who
would I have to watch out for?
It seems
that the determined and opinionated Greer Swope is someone to be
avoided, but that would be a mistake as she has so much to offer. The person who is
the most dangerous is the show jumper rider, Jennifer Nicholson.
Who
would keep an eye on me?
Talia
Margolin looks out for everyone. When
she was younger, she tended to her dying
mother and that set the tone for her life. Her first reaction is always to try to make
life better for those around her, whether human or animal.
What
do I need to bring with me?
Your own
saddle would be excellent. If you’re at
Bittersweet Farm, you’re definitely going to get up on a horse.
By the time I came home again, I'd know more about . . .
Hopefully you’d know more about yourself. Bittersweet Farm is a learning
experience. It seems like the main
function is training horses and riders but mostly it’s about growing.
THANK YOU, BARBARA.
