"I listened to this one during a few weeks of heavy driving time and really enjoyed it. A group of widows gather on Valentine's Day and end up talking about all the things they've wanted to do and never done--their "Twenty Wishes" lists. Ultimately this is a story about continuing to live and hope and dream after a life-changing loss. In the convenient way of novels, as soon as these wishes crystalize, opportunities are presented to begin living them, but not in the way any of the characters would have predicted. While not a fast-paced or earth-shattering book, the emotions of the characters rang true to me, in a slightly sappy sort of way."
"It's not that this was an amazing book, but that it got me thinking about MY twenty wishes. I've been trying to formulate a way to make my goals come true for a few years now, and this felt really accessible. I've been talking to several friends, and we're making our wishes gradually, and helping each other see how to make them happen. For example, I've started saying to the universe now that I'm going to India in 2011 - and it looks like it's going to happen. So, this book was a great catalyst for me, to write down and talk about wishes large and small."
"An easy read story about a group of women taking a knitting class and deciding each to make a list of the 20 things they wanted most in life. One of these was a young widow who wanted love back in her life. Takes her through a whole process of loneliness, seeking help from friends, volunteering at a school, helping out an abused youngster, becoming a foster parent for the youngster and then formally adopting her. Was very interesting to follow the process leading to the adoption but also the emotions involved in reaching the decision to adopt. Typical Macomber - easy-to-read and lots of inspiration."
"Absolutely wonderful addition to the Blossom Street series. The new charecters in the bookstore, the return of old favorite characters, and the connections they make with each other. A group of ladies who have one thing in common, being a widow, set out to make the best of a Valentines Day alone. The idea of making a list of 20 wishes is joking tossed about, then they all decide to do that very thing. Debbie Macober is such a creative writter that is able to make each persons wishes real, warm and a must do. in the end, I felt like making my own list of 20 wishes as did several other people I know that read the book.
Another great book by Debbie Macomber. Really anticipating the next of her books."
