Book Reviews of Summer On Blossom StreetBook Review: Five Stars + Spoilers Follow Summary: 5 Stars
Another great installment of Blossom Street series. Lydia and her husband have decided to adopted a baby but end up being foster parents to a surrly twelve year old girl. She's having a new knitting class where everyone is quitting something. Alix returns trying to quit smoking because she and her husband want to have a baby. Phoebe is trying to quit a relationship gone bad and Hutch is trying to relieve stress in his life for his health. I was surprised and happy with a man joining the knitting class. All the stories were very good except for two minor things I'm not sure why Phoebe chose to lie about her fiance and I'm surprised Hutch took learning the truth so well. And this series is starting to have the same problem the Cedar Cove series there's too many charactors its hard to remember who everyone is. Debbie Macomber had drop ins from previous books and it took a few minutes for me to remember who they were.
Book Review: Wonderful read Summary: 5 Stars
I thoroughly enjoy Debbie Macomber's books and look forward to reading all of them, and when this book came this past week, I immediately started reading and was done within two days. Although one reviewer said she never met a woman like Phoebe, I disagree. I have met many strong women who have had to make very hard decisions about relationships. If just one reader after reading of Phoebe's decision to leave the relationship of a unfaithful/manipulative partner, the story helped someone. No one, either male or female, has the right to abuse a relationship. Yes, the book has a happy ending, but then why do I read, to escape, to be uplifted. A wonderful read, put your feet up, a glass of lemonade on a hot summer day and Debbie takes your home.
Book Review: Charming as Always Summary: 5 Stars
I've read all of Debbie Macomber's books, and their appeal for me lies in the fact that she creates believable scenes and characters that I can easily relate to. She has a gift for taking ordinary people and putting them in situations that anyone might find themselves in. While reading Summer on Blossom Street, I found myself sympathizing with Anne Marie as she agonized over whether to tell her adopted daughter about the sudden appearance of her biological father; and wishing I could help the Goetz family as they tried to understand the foster child living with them "just for the summer." Reading a Macomber book is like reuniting with old friends and catching up on the latest neighborhood news. It's also good for lowering your stress level.
Book Review: Like coming home for a visit! Summary: 5 Stars
Debbie Macomber knows what readers want! In the latest book about our friends on Blossom Street, Lydia has a new group starting. Knit to Quit. Everyone who joins is trying to quit something, whether it be a habit, or maybe even a person.
Each person has their own trial going on, from adoption/foster care, finding love or figuring out life.
This book is the fifth one in the series but able to stand on it's own. However you won't want to miss any of the others!
I can't wait to hear what happens next with Hutch and Phoebe or Anne and Tim!!! Keep em' comin!
Book Review: Debbie Does it Again! Summary: 5 Stars
This was another great book by Debbie Macomber. It was a very quick and easy read. I did not want to put it down and finished it in 4 days.
Although Debbie introduced some new characters into this story, you were able to catch up on your favorites from previous books. As with all her other stories I can not wait to find out what happens to our friends next.
On her website, it says "Where ever you are Debbie takes you home" and they are right. Whenever I can't find a good book to read I just pick up hers and it's always enjoyable!
