DESCRIPTION
For every woman who has ever dreamed of starting over, or being a better mother, or just knitting a really nice scarf . . . When her husband dies in a car crash -- not long after announcing he wants a divorce -- Jo Mackenzie packs up her two rowdy boys and moves from London to a dilapidated villa in her seaside hometown. There, she takes over her beloved Gran's knitting shop -- a quaint but out-of-date store in desperate need of a facelift. After a rough beginning, Jo soon finds comfort in a "Stitch and Bitch" group; a collection of quirky, lively women who share their stories, and their addiction to cake, with warmth and humor. As Jo starts to get the hang of single-parent life in a small town, she relies on her knitting group for support. The women meet every week at the shop on Beach Street and trade gossip and advice as freely as they do a new stitch. But when a new man enters Jo's life, and an A-list actress moves into the local mansion, the knitting club has even more trouble confining the conversation to knit one, purl two.The Beach Street Knitting Society and Yarn Club is an uplifting, winning tale about the healing power of friendship and new beginnings. It's a charming novel that will delight all passionate knitters -- and win over befuddled, would-be knitters, too.

This was a fun book to read. I laughed out loud several times. Jo's husband came home, told her there was someone else then,after a fight, drove off and ran into a tree killing himself. This book tells how Jo learns to cope with the anger and loss and still keep good memories for her two boys of their dad. Her grandmother gives her a yarn shop in a seaside town. This story has many parts, taking the knitting shop in a bit different direction, coping with the snooty women at the boys new school, dealing with her difficult mom, the fun she has with her best friend, meeting new friends. This book seemed very realistic to me.
