NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

When times are tough, confiding in friends can change your life. Cancer survivor Lydia's business is thriving but her dream-man's ex is threatening their relationship... Retired, self-contained Elise has lost everything and lives with her daughter, but still has disturbingly strong feelings for her gambling ex-husband.

Nervous Bethanne is an unwilling divorcee whose husband left her and their children for a younger woman. She urgently needs a job, but has she the confidence to find one? Lonely teenager Courtney feels abandoned too.

Grieving over her mother's death, she has put on weight and dreads starting a new school. This uplifting, heart-warming story proves that however bleak the future may look, the importance of friendship should never be underestimated.

Make time for friends. Make time for Debbie Macomber.

3 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book, although I'm not sure quite why. 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.
