The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs

3.5 out of 5 stars

Kate Jacobs first novel hits at the core of female friendship. Main character, Georgia Walker, is the common thread to the relationships formed in an after hours knitting club in her Manhattan yarn shop. At first this group of regulars and a couple oddballs come together for knitting tips and help. Soon enough the walls begin to come down and each woman's life becomes its own story. Each woman's struggles are unique. Each story woven together. It is through this that their lives begin to change. Through a series of twists and turns the stories take on real meaning.

I really enjoy this theme. The bond of women, each struggling with her own issues, coming together. It is a book about friendship, love, and forgiveness. I came way being so thankful for the amazing friendships I have.
