Yarn & Yearnings
by Duckie Mack
Okay.. Chapter 1 in and I was hooked.. and crying but totally not the fault of Duckie.
When I say I devoured this book, I mean it. I stayed up way to late to read this and finish and I am so glad that I did because Collin & Harper are it.
I have wanted to know more about the crocheter in this series since Evan went to his tent in book 2.
Collin was everything I never expected, he's a biker who crochets but also who takes care of his grandmother. Having been someone who had such a close relationship with my grandmother and who is also a crafter this made me smile so much but also teary eyed. Their relationship resembled mine so much. I miss mine.
I adored Harper. To me Harper needed a hug and one from a friend. I am so happy he found his friend in Marley but also Collin. Harper being from outside and coming into the fold in a way made this book what it is. Harper was always looking for the person who made him happy if only for that short time but still the impression was one to never forget, after all we never forget our firsts. Good or bad.
Yarn & Yearnings lives to the title..
There is yarn and some very creative uses for it too but there is the yearning and that is what makes this book so perfect for the title, in my opinion. When you want something so much that when it happens, everything clicks into place.
Now I cant not do this review and not mention grandma Iris. She is the grandma everyone should have. The understanding, acceptance but also the best friend you never knew you needed. Her cheekiness was perfect and made me smile so much that I was laughing when it came to her conversations with Collin. I definitely loved her right out the gate.
I am glad that I found this series and have loved everyone so far, Dash & Evan were my favorites so far but it might be tied with Collin & Harper (and Iris). We shall see what comes from the other characters of this series before I make a final choice.
