The characters seemed very unrealistic, especially the ending. I'm not one who has to have realistic reads all the time, but the ending was so "that would never happen" that I found myself rolling eyes at points. I suppose that I really like the character of the shop owner, Lydia, and that is what will keep bringing me back to read more about the Good Yarn shop. Plus they are easy reads that don't take too much brain power. ( ) Self absorbed women who need the knitting store to remind them to get a life. Also like that you get up-to-date on the people from previous book since they add to the story. Lydia, the store owner, was actually closer to a normal person for this book in her reactions to her sister's money problems and boyfriend's ex coming back into their lives. Bethanne was so clueless about her own daughter's behaviors I could see why she would rather relive the childhood parties. High schooler Courtney was the most realistic until the whole fairy Godfather thing took it over the top for homecoming. Elise realizes that Gambling is OK when it makes you rich and your dying. Oh and he is good at sex! I am surprised that I am continuing with a series because I usually give some time break between books. Debbie Macomber's characters feel like real women to me. I can see each one of them, and I'd love to know them. She makes you feel like you could stroll right into that yarn shop. Macomber doesn’t simply tell you a story about her characters; she invites you into their lives through the pages of her novel. Each one came to life differently for me. I loved how I got to know them as individuals. The different trials that they went through brought me closer to each of them. Even if I didn’t quite love them at the beginning of the novel, by the end, we were fast friends. This novel covers a span of a year and is very sweet and predictable ~~ but just warm and fuzzy as can be. Having a fairy godfather near the end helps make this book an even more cozy read. I don't know anything about Macomber's books to know if this is typical of her books, but after reading this one, I plan to read her others as well. Digital audiobook narrated by Linda Emond This is book two in the Blossom Street series, featuring Lydia Hoffman, owner of “A Good Yarn” in Seattle Washington, and the people who come to her store for knitting classes and form friendships as a result. It’s a charming, easy read with an ensemble cast that includes teenagers and seniors, and every age in between. Happy marriages, divorces, dating scenarios, crushes, and disappointments. People struggle with financial ruin, job loss and major health issues. The reader shares their ups and downs, and it ends on a predictably upbeat note. I haven’t read the first book in the series, though I have read other books by Macomber. They are all mind candy, comfort reads. Enjoy! Linda Emond does a fine job narrating the audiobook. She has a lot of characters to voice and manages to keep them straight. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
