Blindsided Paperback – August 19, 2014

The basic story line was good yet confusing at times. Seems the main character was not quiet remembering correctly what was told to her. This made for confusion on my part. I did love Baxter, the seeing eye dog & how he helped the main character.

A great book, although a romance in discription, it is more of a story of trust, and self discovery. The story of two women who have issues with believing in themselves as well as trusting both themselves and others! Cara, a daughter of actors who is never quite good enough and has issues in believing in herself. She has a show on Public TV that showcases people or organizations that help or give back to the community. And Lenae a sight impaired owner and instructor of a guide dogs training school. Who is unsure of others intentions because of past issues and her own handicap. A very good story with a lot emotion and a moral as well!

***No Synopsis***While a book that features a character who is differently abled is always a plus for me, that wasn't enough to carry this book for me. While I like stories about a guarded woman becoming vulnerable because of the pull of love from another woman, in this case it felt forced. It happened too fast and too early. I understand the physical attraction, but I like to see the characters work a little harder for their relationship. The writing was good, the story interesting, the overall feel it gave me was (as three stars indicate) was just okay.

Love story yes. Sassy moments yes. Dogs... oh yes! But this book, is more than that, the message the author convey is important. Wether to teach you not to belittle individuals to connecting with your surroundings to give a chance and not judge. This was a beautiful story and a nice surprise! I didn't expect this powerful of a story. Great book, well done and I look forward to your next book Karis Walsh.

Wow! Ms. Walsh has done it again. Blindsided is a wonderful book that will make the reader think, and not just about the scenes and the characters, but about themselves as characters in the lives of those around them. She's created wonderful people to take us away and let us "see" what those without sight see. Highly recommended to all, warning: tissues may come in handy...plenty of smiles for all too.

I figured I'd like this book because of the dogs, and I was in the mood for a little romance. turns out I loved this book because of the people (not characters, people). the romance was so smoothly intertwined with the plot that I felt like I was taking part in their lives. I figure I might read this book again, and again.

A well written story with a perfect balance of dog and puppy characters, human characters and emotionality. Great insights into personality and psychological traits of how we see ourselves and how the right person sees us.

Had a hard time getting into this story. I was really looking forward to reading this one, but it just didn't flow for me. I will try reading something else from Walsh but this one left me bored.

I loved this book, it was really interesting to read about service dog training and the unique use of a character with blindness instead of the perfect, good looking model type. I liked all the characters but especially the puppy Pickwick, I wish there was a separate book just detailing the misadventures, I'd be one of the first to buy it, he's brilliant.It's a easy-going book in my opinion and I have read it several times. There were times where I actually laughed out loud and it also made me seriously think about what it might be like to be a puppy walker and what it takes to train a service dog.

This is a really good book. I read it in two sittings The humans in the story were very likeable the dogs well they were just great.

A pesar de lo típico de este libro, chica conoce a chica - problemas y final feliz -, me gusta cómo está escrito y cómo describe los sentimientos.

Enjoyed it very much, interesting character development, I love K. Walsh's books.

Brilliant book,really opens your understanding of people with disabilities and how to interact with them. How all people's want the same things out of life.
