This book is quite simply the sweetest story I have ever read. Ever. A story of love and grief and healing and courage, told with such grace and beauty. A brave story that is deeply emotional and will pull at your heartstrings but also make you laugh and awwww; while there were sad moments in the end it was uplifting. The author does a lovely job of capturing the myriad of emotions Michael has and is experiencing after losing his beloved. Very, very real. I loved this book.

I loved this series of books. Once I began the series, I just had to read them all. The writing is terrific and you really love the characters.

So slow and boring that I had to put it down. I did get halfway through. It seemed like Macomber was trying too hard to make it a tearjerker. I know I'm being cold-hearted by saying that.
I had a hard time connecting or respecting any of the characters. Pierre came off as an egotistical jerk. Winter acted like a four year old. Doc was like a broken record with his feelings. The first few chapters of his thoughts were touching but really it is just the same thoughts for the next few as well. Macy seemed like an irresponsible nut. Nurse Lancaster was like walking death. I was shocked. Usually there is at least one character I like in her books.
Big disappointment. Don't waste time or money on this one.

I enjoyed this book, even though it was very predictable. I definitely wanted to see these women happy and was able to relate to certain situations. While bittersweet, I was happy to see the progression of the mourning process

This was a wonderful book. Really makes you think what would you do if the worst were to happen to you or your spouse. I loved this.

This was an easy, fun book to read. It reads a lot like a Hallmark or Lifetime Movie. It's a very safe book, no sex, no violence, no swearing. Very sweet story of a widower, who's wife leaves him a list of 3 women to meet and perhaps fall in love with. Very predictable ending but it was a nice read nonetheless. I love the Washington State references since I live here and knew exactly the places she was writing about.

Not her best work. Predictable and slow. Disapointing after reading her others and liking them so much.
Very sweet book. It's sad in some parts, but overall an easy read.
On the anniversary of his beloved wifes death, Dr. Michael Everett receives a letter Hannah had written him. In it she reminds him of her love and makes one final request. An impossible request. I want you to marry again. She tells him he shouldnt spend the years he has left grieving her. And to that end shes chosen three women she asks him to consider. During the months that follow, he spends time with Winter, Leanne, and Macy, learning more about each of themand about himself. Learning what Hannah already knew. Hes a man who needs the completeness only love can offer. And Hannahs list leads him to the woman who can help him find it. Great gift! Great Read@!
She doesn't call it a Blossom Street Book so no knitting pattern. Still a lovely story and getting through grief.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book because of the depth of charachter development Debbie did. Besides drawing me in emotionally, it was just plain fun reading!
This book begins with a very surprising storyline....but as you read further into it...it makes more and more sense...a lot of different feelings with this plot...and some really loveable folks...totally unpredictable...but with the ending true to life...I love this series...
Loved this book. Just finished it.
I am sad to say that Hannah's List left me feeling empty. Michael's grief is real. I knew he wouldn't end up with Winter or the other lady. Knew it would be Macy but what I didnt expect is that she would run like a coward. I stopped rooting for her after that. What a waste, I think he deserved better than Macy.
