Join Barnes & Noble – 33 Town Square Blvd Suite 100, Asheville, NC on Saturday, November 25 at 5:30 PM ET, as we welcome author, actress and producer Christy Cashman for a signing and photo-op to celebrate the launch of her debut novel THE TRUTH ABOUT HORSES which is already a #1 new release.
“Christy Cashman has written a beautiful, thrilling tale about a teenage girl’s journey from fear to courage, from anger to forgiveness, from broken-heartedness to openness. The Truth about Horses is so much about the mysterious forces, within us and around us, that are always there to guide us, and the way in which people enter our lives exactly when we need them—if only we’ll let them.” —Jane Seymour, actress, author, and co-founder of the Open Hearts Foundation
Praise for The Truth About Horses by Christy Cashman
“With all of the unpredictable thrill of a horseback ride, The Truth about Horses took me deep into the mind of a teenage girl searching for her post-traumatic truth. It is a beautiful, moving story that I’m glad to know and certain to remember.” —Harry Connick Jr., Emmy Award–winning actor and Grammy Award–winning musician
Don’t waste another moment reading these simple lines of praise. Go straight to the horse’s mouth. By the way, it’s a winner.” — Carly Simon, musician, singer, songwriter, and author
“This is a heartwarming novel about facing down the perils of adversity. It’s also an examination of how and why we become stronger at the broken places. Christy Cashman has written a book for everyone, young and old, who wants to know about the elemental gallop of the heart.” —Colum McCann, author of Apeirogon and Let the Great World Spin
