Book Reviews of The Friday Night Knitting Club
Book Review: Meh
Summary: 1 Stars
If you're looking for a little slice of life book with a whole bunch of characters that suddenly wrap up all their stories all within about 2 1/2 pages, then sure, read this book. Otherwise.... Look, we spend the first third or so of the book all from one character's POV, and then all of a sudden start switching around to all the characters getting their chance. My mother bought this book for me and I probably wouldn't have picked it up if it wasn't for that, and really wouldn't have missed much. If you saw the ending to this book made into a movie - you'd walk out feeling cheated...unless maybe it was supposed to be a comedy about how everyone accompmlishes their goals all within a 5 minute time span if they just learn how to knit together as a group...
