This is not a young adult book, that label made me not as interested in reading this book right away. This book would not appeal to young adults, it doesnt even have a YA vib.

This book is set in England, near the beac and is about Knitting. Hence the title Beach Street Knitting etc. What might shock you is that in this knitting book no one dies or recovers from Cancer, and the shop owner does not try to solve a mystery or date the local law enforcement hottie.

This main character is not some lost broken, woman who needs to find herself. You wont find her digging deep to find the true inner beauty. It is about a woman who finds out her husband is cheating on her, they get in a fight, he leaves and dies in a car accident. Her biggest hurdle is raising her boys who are wow kinda little terrors, and moving out of London to the small town.

She finds some nice neighbors and true friends.

The dialogue and story are fresh, and well done, nobody is really quirky or snarky.

I gave this book a 4 of 5.
