Kate Jacobs Knows the Heart

On the face of it, this is a story about a group of woman who, after meeting every Friday to study the tools of their knitting craft, form a solid sisterhood. This bond is the catalyst that enables the protagonist to deal with conflicts in her life. Happy ending.

Beneath this simple premise, however, is a narrative that beats with heart. Kate Jacobs understands the human barriers that keep us from being vulnerable with one another, and how miraculous it is when those fences start to slip. This is a story that reinforces a belief in the transforming power of love and in something I prize even more strongly now: the power of female friendship.

The Friday Night Knitting Club

This book was a good read. The author really gets you hooked into the lives of her characters. I would recommend it, but from a Christian worldview, there are elements which are contrary to Biblical teaching.

great read, but.... (CAUTION - might be a spoiler)

Initially, I couldn't put the book down. When the cast flew to Scotland, the author lost me. I panicked, hoping that this would not be another "Steel Magnolias" as the critics suggested. In the end, I threw the book down. Sorry, but I was disappointed. I agree with the other readers that the character development was poor (especially with Cat. What was the point with her anyway?). I couldn't even become attached to Georgia!
