I finished another library book last night, “Back on Blossom Street” by Debbie Macomber. I thoroughly enjoyed it, as I expected to! I love the Cedar Cove books by Macomber, and I’ve loved both books she has set on Blossom Street (The Shop on Blossom Street and A Good Yarn). I do hope she continues on with this series and these characters. In this book, we have yet another knitting class, this time for a prayer shawl. Lydia and her sister Margaret are back, as are several of the other characters from the previous books. One of the members of the knitting class is Susannah, from Macomber’s other recent book, Susannah’s Garden. Another member is Alix, from the first book, who is about to wed pastor Jordan Turner, if she can survive the wedding preparations. There’s also Collette, who works with Susannah at her flower shop on Blossom Street. If you read and enjoyed either of the other books, you will like this one!
For the record, that makes 40 books for me so far this year, with a total of 12,510 pages read. Up next is another library book, one I picked up on a whim from the New Release shelf – “Dream When You’re Feeling Blue” by Elizabeth Berg. This is going to be a totally different book, as it appears (from the book jacket) to be about “3 sisters during World War II, their lively Irish family and the men they love”. I hope it’s good!
I am so amazed by how fast you whip through these books! Good for you! Everyone seems to love Debbie Macomber’s books…I really must try them sometime.
The Elizabeth Berg book sounds really good. The one on my list is the first of hers that I’ll have read — maybe I’ll try it next. Just finished a book last night.
Oh my gosh, Stacy!!! Unbelievable.
I like E. Berg but haven’t read that one yet. Hope you enjoy!
Ooo, I’m intrigued by that Elizabeth Berg book! I love all things WWII, so I bet that would be right up my alley.
I made sure to note Debbie Macomber’s name. It sounds like something my mom would really like…maybe me, too! 😉
Have you read Susanna’s Garden? And should I read it before this one?
Too many books and I’m way behind on reading!
I have heard of Debbie Macomber’s books, but just haven’t got the chance to read them yet. And the book by Elizabeth Berg sounds good also, I will have to look them up one day. Thanks for sharing, Stacy! 🙂
This looks really good. I am putting this on my vacation read list – sounds like a nice one to kick back with while the inlaws are fighting 🙂
I’ve only read one book by Macomber – Shop on Blossom Street. Really enjoyed it and will be reading more of hers.
