Yours Mag - Bookshelf Giveaways
10 x "Handle with Care" by Jodi Picoult..
(please see Matryoshka's post below)
5 x "The Horse Dancer" by Jojo Moyes
(This review is from: The Horse Dancer (Paperback)
The photo of the rearing horse and barefoot rider on the cover gave me some thought for pause as I wondered if I had received a young adult novel. However, I was quickly drawn into this tale of modern relationships.
Natasha is a successful London solicitor advocate in the process of getting divorced from her husband Mac. A series of miscarriages have driven a wedge between them and recent cases at work have left her distrusting her judgement.
Sarah is a young teenager living in a London council estate with her elderly grandfather, Henri Lachapelle. In an effort to protect his granddaughter from the crime that surrounds then, Henri has taught his granddaughter all he knows about Le Cadre Noir, an exclusive French riding school, dedicated to the finest horsemanship. Not only that, but he bought a horse for Sarah. Not any old pony, but a fantastic Selle Francaise called Boo.
The paths of these two speparate women entwine when Henri suffers a dehabilitating stroke, leaving Sarah to fend for herself. It's a bit of a cliched tale, but the lonely women and the hurt and angry teenager help each other to feel more human again.
This book surpassed my expectations. Moyes has a deft touch for human relationships. It is a romantic story and has the expected happy ending, but somehow it is also more. It is an interesting look at the disintegration of a marriage under the pressure of repeated miscarriages and the failure of the system to care for lonely teenagers. Highly recommended reading.)
5 x "Tell me where it Hurts" by Dr. Nick Trout...
(From Publishers Weekly
This is the perfect gift for anyone considering becoming a veterinarian. Trout, a staff surgeon at Boston's Angell Animal Medical Center, has exactly the traits that any pet owner would wish to find in a vet: he's smart, sensitive, experienced, empathic and has an excellent sense of humor. He also happens to be an excellent writer, and his personality suffuses the many stories sifted from recollections of thousands of animal encounters during his 25 years of practice and compressed in this account into one day. Trout shows how the daily life of a veterinarian requires the ability to be a social worker, a psychologist, a grief counselor, mentor, carpenter, plumber, cosmetologist, athletic coach, magician, grim reaper, and occasionally, guardian angel. And in some of the more heart rending stories, such as that of an older widowed man dealing with the potential loss of his shepherd companion, Sage, Trout shows his sensitivity to the fact that in each case, The rewards and strength of the bonds with the animals in their lives proved irresistible, irrepressible, and more than worth the risk.

10 x "Handle with Care" by Jodi Picoult
I googled this book to find out what it's about and found this
Handle with Care is the story of a family with two daughters. The second was born with brittle bone disease, a condition that makes her bones break easily and that limits her height and movement. When Willow (the daughter with a disability) is four, her parents decide to sue their OB for "wrongful birth," claiming that Willow's condition should have been diagnosed earlier in the pregnancy so that they could have terminated the pregnancy. Sound controversial? Add to it the fact that the OB is the mother's best friend, who has remained close to the family since the birth, then throw in a neglected and bulimic older sibling, and you have classic Picoult. Extreme as it is, Handle with Care works well because the characters are complicated and it is not clear where the plot will go. As a reader, you may find yourself unsure of what you want -- do you hope the family wins so that they can pay their medical bills and provide a better life for their daughters or do you think the parents are being selfish and that no amount of money can undo hearing that your parents may not have wanted you? This is one of many ethical questions Handle with Care raises, which is why it would be a good choice for book clubs looking for lively conversation.SECRET TO WINNING PRIZES:
If you see it in your mind, you're going to hold it in your hand.
