The Beach Street Knitting Sociey and Yarn Club by Gil McNeil

A very plain story about getting on in life.  Jo finds out that her husband is leaving her and then he dies in a car crash.  Her world is turned upside down.  She moves to the country with her kids to take over a yarn shop.  Many new people come into her life, she finds she loves working in the yarn shop and bringing in new ideas.  She realizes that she is really happy for the first time in a long time.  Of course there are many side stories that are funny and have left much to build on in the series.  I am not saying that it was not a good book, but it did not grab me.  I wanted to see how it would continue, but it was easy to put down.  An easy, almost comforting read that felt good coming back to.
