The Blossom Street Brides #review

Debbie Macomber has won the hearts of millions of readers with her moving and inspiring stories.

In Blossom Street Brides wedding bells are ringing in a close community that centres around A Good Yarn, located in a small Seattle neighborhood. People come to the store to buy yarn and patterns but always leave richer in friendship and love from the relationships with the owner.

Lauren Elliott has waited years for her l boyfriend, Todd, to propose but he always seems more focused on his career than on their relationship. When Lauren learns that her younger sister is pregnant before she is even engaged, she is happy but completely disheartened. Knowing that she can’t put her future on hold anymore, Lauren makes a bold choice—one that leads her to a man that she never dreamed she’d meet.

Newly married to her second husband, Max, Bethanne Scranton is completely in love. But with their jobs separating them on a daily basis (Max’s job in California and Bethanne’s in Seattle) their long-distance marriage is becoming difficult to maintain. To further complicate matters, Bethanne’s cunning ex will do anything to win her back as well as her children’s.

Lydia Goetz is happy with her husband, Brad, although lately she worries about the future of her store – A Good Yarn the community gathering point. As she considers how to increase business, she discovers that someone has beaten her to it. Baskets of yarn are mysteriously popping up all over town, with instructions to knit a scarf for charity and bring it into Lydia’s store. Her shop receives so much attention but she has no idea who has hatched this brilliant plan?

A great summer read for the pool or the beach! An easy story to follow with the three women’s lives intersecting in such an unique way. Great romances and life stories behind each characters that helps you relate to each one (I am sure you will know at least one person that you can relate to a character!). You will love curling up outside with this book!

The Here and Now #review

The Here and Now by Ann Brashares is the romantic thriller about a girl from the future who might be able to save the world if she can let go of the one thing that she has found to hold on to.

Follow the rules. Remember what happened. Never fall in love.

These are the three biggest rules that seventeen year old Prenna James, who immigrated to New York when she was twelve must remember. The only thing is that Prenna did not immigrate from a different country. She came from a different time – a future where a mosquito borne illness has mutated into a pandemic killing millions and leaving the world in ruins.

Prenna and the others who have escaped to the present day must follow a strict set of rules to never reveal where they are from, never interfere with history and never be intimate with anyone outside their community. Prenna does as she is told, believing she can help prevent the plague that will one day ravage the earth. But everything changes when Prenna falls for Ethan Jarves.

Where to start with this novel – I loved every moment! Ann Brashares has the most incredible way of writing that has you wanting more (to be honest when the novel was finished I was hoping for a teaser to a second part!). I love stories set in the future and the way they had traveled back in time was brilliant. The romance that blooms between her and Ethan is forbidden but could not be helped. I know that this will be a hit for many young readers!

Rating: 5/5
