random childhood memory
Apr. 12th, 2020 05:39 pmOut of nowhere today, I remembered a book I read ages ago. I wanna say I was in Jr High and I found it in the library. I don't remember the title, but it was your standard plucky heroine saves a wild horse that's too much for her story. But the girl was also a witch? Or learning to be one. And the horse was really a gunslinger or something that had been cursed in the shape of a horse. So he could finally be tamed by a woman?
Which? Looking back? Hm.
Now here's the thing, there was all kind of weird, vaguely sexy descriptions of both man and horse, which is still pretty par for the course for a book a teenage girl would like. I think she has to seduce him away from the witch who cursed him, but there was also something about her father that made it even weirder.
Usually when I remember a book like that, I think I'll track it down on Amazon and read it again. This time? Not so much.
Things are a little better here these days. Turns out I thrive in a hermit situation. And am now forbidden to be closer than six feet from the person who had been making me so miserable. So I'm sorry everyone else has to suffer with me, but I'm kind of glad to have some time to myself.
