1) Paperback Book The Friday Night Knitting Club by Berkley Trade. I really enjoyed this book and would recommended to anyone I know. I initially bought it unsure that it was really a book for me, but was I happily surprised. For me at least, this book in its creation shows the complexity of life with the complexity of learning how to knit. It can be frustrating at first but eventually you will create something of very own that you can be proud of. And yes there may be times where you will unravel some of your work to rework it, but you will learn something in the process that makes you a better knitter. But in the end, like life, you must bind your work off to begin a new one.

Yes, I´m a sap, but overall I think most anyone will enjoy this book. ;o) Happy reading.¤

Good fiction has the ability to make something not believable seem believable, but this doesn´t do that - it is just too contrived, politically correct, and unrealistic to be enjoyable.

3) Paperback Book The Friday Night Knitting Club by Berkley Trade. I really enjoyed this book. It was fairly predictable throughout, though there were a few unexpected twists. The message seemed to be that we can´t run away from our family, and family love overcomes all other.¤

4) Paperback Book The Friday Night Knitting Club by Berkley Trade. This book was very easy (simple) reading, but never seemed to develop much of a plot. The characters seemed to be suited for 50+ year olds who never grew from the junior high stage of this type of story. After the first 14 chapters, I skipped to chapter 35 and finished the book, knowing the entire story.¤

5) Paperback Book The Friday Night Knitting Club by Berkley Trade. As I read this book, I kept wondering how on earth it got published. I suspect that the publisher wanted to capitalize on the popularity of knitting. The characters are superficially drawn, the pace and plotting are jumpy and uneven, and the ending is right out of a bad soap opera. Thank goodness I checked this out from the library! If you´re curious -- or think that your own love of knitting will help you get over the book´s many flaws -- I suggest you do the same. Save your money to spend on some really nice yarn...............¤
