I am a knitter, and thought this book was great. I wasn't sure what to expect with this book, but was pleasantly surprised. I recommend it, even if you don't knit, maybe you will learn after reading this cute story of support and friendship.

This book was an intense read that scared the "you know what" out of me. I could not put it down. I've never read anything quite like it and it does stay with you after you put it down and the Possibility of such an occurance.

Once I picked up this book, I was weirdly unable to put it down. It was quite an interesting story. I thought it was an easy read but also enthralling.
