Back on Blossom Street Audiobook

" The characters from the Blossom Street series are back with a few new additions. A quick read about these women who are all connected by knitting classes they have taken at The Good Yarn. "

" Let me preface my review with the circumstance under which I came to own the audiobook of "Back on Blossom Street.". I was at Sam's Club with my mom on the day I planned to make a solo journey of 362 miles from my Mom's house to my current location. I love a good audiobook to accompany me on the 6 hour drive. The selection was poor - lots of JD Robb and Danielle Steel. I don't mind either author, but wanted something more than what they had to offer. I was ready to walk away when my mother exclaimed, "I love Debbie Macomber! I will buy that one for you if you bring it back next time you come.". Well, what kind of idiot turns down a free book? So there I was, driving, listening to Lydia Getz tell me all about her yarn store and the ladies knitting group. It started out all right, but quickly moved into the cliched and prescribed narrative I expected from a book that was $6.96 at the Sam's Club. It wasn't groundbreaking, it didn't push me to think, and the reader's voice made all the characters sound as though they were impersonating Katherine Hepburn. It's 5 hours I won't get back, but at least I had some company on the long drive home. "

" As always Debbie Macomber cannot fail. Her books are refreshing, clean and romantic. "

" just continuing with the characters. Nice story "

" Picked this up at the paperback exchange at my local library and didn't realize it was number 4 in a series. Will look for the first 3 books soon as I liked the characters and the writing style. "

" Another great book about the women of Blossom Street. "

" Not my favorite Blossom Street book, but still a good read. I like Macomber's characters as a rule - women who could be the people next door, facing challenges we could all face. "

" These books are an easy read,a perfect august read. I like how each character has their own chapter and each character has a problem to solve. Debbie has an inspirational message. "

" So glad she wrote a 3rd book in this series! There may be another coming? Not sure, but if there is, I will defionatley read it. "

" If I hadn't read the other two Blossom Street books and a couple of her other books I might have liked this one more. But I'm tired of seeing the same women in the same plots with the same solutions. "

" A good story, but her writing repeats far too often. I wish editors would do a better job of catching these mistakes. "

" Light read - enjoyable, made me want to read the first two of a semi-series. Fun if you like to knit as the author puts in the directions for the project the yarn shoping is working on during the story. "

" seems so real! I want to go there "

" This book series just keeps getting better and better! I'm officially addicted ;) "

" Interesting read but kind of sappy. story jumps around a lot. "

" Love it new characters and funny happenings with previous ones . "

" Wast a good book. There is always a little bit of everything in here books. "

" It is nice to stop back in and visit with the shop owners, residents and customers of Blossom Street. It is a comfortable read, that doesn't require much of you. "

" Lived up to my expectations. Lydia is back teaching more knitting classes. My next knitting project will be the prayer shawl! I am knitting it for my grandmother for her Christmas present. Shh! "

" Very entertaining....makes me realize my life is fairly mild.... "

" slow to start but worth it in the end!!!!! "

" Cute book. Tells a story of 4 women who's lives intersect through knitting. "

" Gentle read. Happy ending. Not every book has to teach you something. "

" Pretty good story. This was #4 in a series that I have not read/listened to. She does a good job of catching you up on the story. Poignant stories of several friends who work on the same street. A good read. "

" This was a great story of friendship, romance and forgiveness. I read it in two days! I will definitely read more books by this author. "

" Another truely amazing story. I really ejoy these Blossom Street stories. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who truely wants an amazing story to read. "

" A feel good book. This is about the lives of women in a knitting group. I did enjoy the read. "

" Good story but author spends a lot of time retelling events from her previous Blossom Street Books. Still it's a calming book...just like knitting. "

" Not as great as the first book but still quite enjoyable! "

" It was OK, but I think it's time for Macomber to put this series to rest. "

" A feel good book. This is about the lives of women in a knitting group. I did enjoy the read. "

" One of several easy reads in the series "

" Each book in this series gets a little less satisfying...time to take a break! "

" needed a quick, easy, mindless read...but one that I would hold my interest. This fit the bill nicely. "

" Really good book. I like this author and would like the read the rest of the books in the Blossom Street series. Good characters. Really quick read. "

" Easy, fast-paced. I like the idea of using the yarn store and knitting to tie characters together. I also appreciate the tasteful, tactful way that the author handles intimate relationships and religious and family values. "

" As always, Macomber comes through with a good, quick read. I like her characters who continue from one day to another. "

" I really liked this story. All of the romances were touching and very much like real life. Such talent! "

" Light read - enjoyable, made me want to read the first two of a semi-series. Fun if you like to knit as the author puts in the directions for the project the yarn shoping is working on during the story. "

" Not as good as the first 2 in this series... Kind of drug on and on... "

" A nice easy read. I enjoyed that the book was about knitting. "

" No surprises in the endings, but I expect nothing less from this genre. Loved the jumps in POVStill a Maycomber fan. Delivered as expected. "

" This is the third of a series about a yarn store. I've read the other two. It's fun to get to know the characters and follow them in each book. She also includes knitting patterns. I did not like this series as much as the others. "

" I really liked this book. I ate it up quicker then the first book that I read by Debbie Macomber, A Good Yarn. She writes well. Her characters are diverse and interesting. I'll read more of her booksd in the future. "
