Cute! Quick audiobook! Light read. Light romance. Loved all the brothers and Val the bestie! This can be a really great series. I'd recommend it.

Kinda boring. I liked the concept but nothing was really fleshed out enough for me to really care, although the writing itself was easy to get through.

I enjoyed the book, but I felt like it was trying to do too much in too few pages. The relationship between Kerry and Jesse went from 0 to 100 and back to 0 so quickly, and there was a lot of superfluous details that I don't feel added to the overall story.

I really like this one but I think it's a better novel if it's longer or if editing changed the pacing. I really did not like the grand gesture at the end and don't think it really made sense for the characters.

A story that focuses on a sweet family with a slow burn romance? Gimme. This was such a lovely read.

I finished this read on Audible. I appreciated the narrator it was read by. She did a good job, however, I would have liked it even better if there were a male reading for the men. Her vocal inflections were great but her voice is beautiful and would have pair nicely with a male's.

The story was a sassy love story. It's always nice to explore a love between 2 people who feel the same but their fear of rejection holds them back from pursuing. To be rejected by that particular person would hurt too bad to try. I like that he tried.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Very okay read.
I'm glad it was about knitting but the relationship and everything wasn't really explained other than the fact that they grew up together. It really lacked a lot of romance and did not follow up with the b plot about if the store was going to make it and pay back the loan. The ending was abrupt too.

Read this on a friend's recommendation. It was ok, but forgettable in the end. Loved the setting of a yarn shop and portrayal of a masculine Black man knitting.
