tHis book had a lot of terrible reviews... I enjoyed it; when i finished i thought crying probably would have been normal for me due to the events in the story, though i didn't. I don't know if I didn't connect with the characters perhaps, or if it was due to reading as an audiobook so i wasn't concentrating like i would have reading traditionally. I Liked it though and would recommend it. It did make me want to join a knitting club... One thing that did bother me a bit, was that the main character seemed to drag her feet the whole way through, being annoyed with certain members and distant from most, and then at the end was revered as practically a saint...
