The Knitting Diaries is a novel I received from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review. This novel attracted my attention for several reasons. One I love to read Debbie Macomber books, she is a fabulous writer. The other two authors are new to me; however, I found there stories filled with adventure. Knitting is one of my hobbies, that many share for numerous reasons; brings some comfort, help, healing and much more.
In this novel which consist of The Twenty First Wish by Debbie Macomber, Coming Unraveled by Susan Mallery, and Return to Summer Island by Christina Skye is filled with love, adventure, laughter, romance and charming characters. The novel makes you feel apart of the lives of the characters as well as being able to hear the click of the knitting needles through out the story. I am glad Christina suggested combining knitting and writing because this anthology is a pleasant fast-paced read.
Love the patterns included:)

Timeless
Timeless by Alexandria Monir although a young adults book is a page turner. This novel is a work of fiction set in New York City containing many historical eras are travelled by Michelle. The story takes you through the Gilded Age, the Roaring Twenties, and World War ll. I throughly enjoyed travelling with Michelle through the varous time periods.
After a life changing tragedy Michelle finds herself going to live with her grandparents whom she did not know nor have a relationship with. While living with her grandparents Michelle discovers the biggest Windsor family secret a diary that enables her to travel back in time to 1910. During her time travels she meets a young man Phillip whom she falls in love with. Michelle struggles to balance her contemporary life in a private high school with escapes into the past. On a field trip Michelle stumbles upon a heart changing discovery that places her on a journey to save the boy she loves.
I hope there is a book 2 in the making that will be published soon. I am eager to read more on Phillip's travels and Michelle's in discoveries at school.
Thanks B&N this was a great in store read and I will definitely purchase book 2.
