Between running her Manhattan yarn shop, Walker & Daughter, and raising her 12-year-old biracial daughter, Dakota, Georgia Walker has plenty on her plate in Jacobs's debut novel. But when Dakota's father reappears and a former friend contacts Georgia, Georgia's orderly existence begins to unravel. Her support system is her staff and the knitting club that meets at her store every Friday night, though each person has dramas of her own brewing.
I have to admit that I was drawn to this title mostly because of having read Ann Hood's The Knitting Circle. I found Hood's book the better of the two as The Friday Night Knitting Club had more of a soap opera feel to it and ended rather abruptly I thought.
