A review on the back of this book described the story as charming and that's exactly what it was.

The story is that of a young woman who suffers several losses in her life and returns to Ireland, the land of her mother's ancestors. There, she makes the acquaintance of the women of a small Irish community and ultimately they end up changing each others' lives.

A great summer read when you want something that's not too heavy but will hold your attention.

Sweet story about a small Irish town that was dying and how the women who had a craft learned from their mothers and grandmothers turned it around after being helped by an American woman looking for her roots. Characters were good and the situation one that could happen. Liked it.

light and easy read. I loved the setting of the small fishing village in Ireland and loved all the characters. Sweet story but just nothing memorable or earth shattering.
