Good Reads

I like the concept of this website, an especially good way to track books you want to read. Goodreads allows me to publish my reviews to my blog so let's try this out:
The Friday Night Knitting Club The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
The cover describes it as Steel Magnolias set in Manhattan which seemed about right to me. There's some swearing which I never appreciate and I felt that the characters were introduced so randomly and haphazardly that I had a hard time remembering which story went with which character for a while. Towards the end I predicted what was going to happen but still found it very moving. For me the last few chapters redeemed the book.
