Download The Knitting Circle: A Novel Audiobook

" Heart-wrenchingly sad! There is no way to read this book without a box of tissues. Shows the therapeutic nature of knitting. Fictionalized version of a tragedy the author experienced. "

" I picked this up when I was really down. Its a great book to read for anyone who is going through a loss of any kind. Very real emotions are portrayed, and it definitely gave me a smile when I put it down. "

" I absolutely loved this book. It's a great story of love and loss and friendship...and knitting, obviously. it made me want to learn to knit! "

" Loved this book! The character's emotion beautifully captured. "

" I thoroughly enjoyed this book. At the beginning of each section there was a quote from various knitting how-to books. I was amazed by how many of these I "read." I suppose the plot was a tad contrived but I was roped in and stayed up way too late to finish it. "

" Another book that had me crying...a lot of info about knitting (which I know nothing about), really enjoyed it! "

" A very emotional and sad book. I did enjoy how knitting played a part in the healing/grief process and how relationships formed between people from various different backgrounds that otherwise would not have. The stories in this book are a reminder how we all struggle with trials in this life and everyone is going through something - you never know until you get to know someone. Outwardly, people appear ok, but it's what in their hearts & life experiences that make them who they are. "

" Dealing with death, a serious subject matter, reads well. "

" Lovely heartwarming story. Really enjoyed it "

" This book is a 12 Step program turned into a fiction novel. I happened to like the story because I like crafts like knitting and crochet, but it was predictable and I am not sure I would recommend it to other prolific readers. "

" I listened to the audiobook "

" Deals with great loss and great grief & is touching. I expected more; I forced myself to finish it. "

" An easy read. Good story. "

" With all the knitting I do, I had to read this book which was entertaining. Being part of the knitting "scene" eased me into retirement. I've just started going to the weekly meetings of "Stitch and Complain." Oh, the book was rather good. "

" Ok - light frothy warm and a good read, but wouldn't recommend it for anyone looking for something very deep and meaningful "

" Sad stories, but when I read that Ann Hood had lost a child at three I understand and it certainly helps one understand such grief when you haven't experienced anything close! "

" love it! makes ya want to get a circle going! "

" Kept me engaged. Not bad writing. I liked it. :) "

" This is a wonderful book. Loved the characters. Don't read if you are sad. Makes me want to learn how to knit!! "

" Pretty good: well written, good character development, but so so sad. It was hard to get through it at times as the premise was devastating just to imagine. "

" Entertaining little book, although highly predictable. The ladies solve all their problems in the knitting circle. "

" I thought this book was okay. "

" I cried throughout this whole book. The author shows the truth behind grieving. Anything worth grieving takes time and no one can tell you how long that it is. Even when you think that wound has healed, you still end up with a scar from it. it made me want to take up knitting :) "

" This wasn't what I had expected but loved it none the less. it's very deep. Expect to cry when you read it. "

" A Good but difficult read, enabling me to understand more the losses of my family and friends. "

" Very good story - (emotionally) hard to read at times, but very well done. A story worth telling. "

" Unexpected little jewel. I don't how long this one's been on my shelf, but I pulled it off at bedtime the other night and immediately hooked. Real people with real problems who learn from the struggles and help others. What a neat idea! "

" I really enjoyed this book. Quick and easy to read about some amazing women although at time might seem a little depressing. "

" Hard book for me to read only because of recent losses of my mother and my husband. But it is beautifully written and once again a book about unique friendships. "

" Good writing. The theme was a bit depressing, but it has a happy ending... "

" It was OK. I enjoyed it well enough. I thought Mary would end up being stronger and more independent. I was disappointed in the ending. "

" Wonderful book, read in 24 hours...couldn't put it down! "

" I really liked this book, but as everyone has stated it is very sad. I can not count how many times I cried reading this book BUT I did enjoy and looked forward to picking it back up. "

" If i could i would give this book a 3.75. A very good book about loss; the author was very good at eliciting the deep pain that this women felt at the loss of her daughter. "

" I loved it. I cried and really want to learn how to knit now. "

" Great book, I really enjoyed it, even though it was very sad. "
