   None No current Talk conversations about this book.   ) SRQlover | Jul 18, 2023 |  So I approached A Single Thread with trepidation, and only after I had exhausted all the library books on my Kobo and was forced to turn to the books I had gotten for free. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that this "crafty chick" story was a cut above. The protagonist had an unusual backstory, and the inevitable romance angle played out against a backdrop of interactions with other people in the town that seemed more complex than average. I'd recommend this book to other "crafty chicks" who like a little meat with their meringue. (  ) rosalita | Nov 8, 2022 | Not my cup of tea at all. Stuck with it out of curiosity (what the heck contrivance will she come up with next?). Won't be reading any of the others, that's for sure. (  ) NanetteLS | Feb 11, 2022 |  ) nancynova | Sep 6, 2019 | After divorce, Evelyn moves cross country and opens a Quilting store. On the day of a planned event to support breast cancer, she reveals that she herself has breast cancer. Soon new deep friendships are formed and we learn about the lives of the other women as Evelyn deals with the disease. A beautiful and moving romance. The highs and lows of cancer, friendships, family and love. And the hidden and bonding connections of a quilting circle. Absolutely lovely. I listened to the audio version.

HTML: Marie Bostwick weaves the unforgettable story of four very different women whose paths cross, changing their lives forever. It's a long way from Fort Worth, Texas, to New Bern, Connecticut, yet it only takes a day in the charming Yankee town to make Evelyn Dixon realize she's found her new home. The abrupt end of her marriage was Evelyn's wake-up call to get busy chasing her dream of opening a quilt shop. Finding a storefront is easy enough; starting a new life isn't. Little does Evelyn imagine it will bring a trio like Abigail Burgess, her niece Liza, and Margot Matthews through her door. Troubled and angry after her mother's death, Liza threatens to embarrass her aunt Abigail all over town unless she joins her for quilting classes. A victim of downsizing at the peak of her career, Margot hopes an event hosted by the quilt shop could be a great chance to networkâ??and keep from dying of boredom. As they stitch their unique creations, Evelyn, Abigail, Liza, and Margot form a sisterhood they never soughtâ??but one that they'll be grateful for when the unexpected provides a poignant reminder of the single thread that binds us all No library descriptions found. |
