Better-than-average three-young-women-finding-love chicklit. The difference is that the characters actually manage to grow up a little over the course of the book.
LaZebnik has a breezy style and chooses the background and a main plot point from topics she understands. (Read the "About the Author" section if you're interested.) The point is that the knitting components of the book are natural rather than feeling grafted on (sorry; a little knitting pun there), and the sections dealing with autistic children are spot-on.
One of the women, Sari, was driven to work with autistic children because her brother is afflicted. As the story progresses, she has to re-evaluate everything she thought she understood about her motivations.
Lucy's medical research work fits well with her mildly OCD personality, but circumstances push her off a path she thought was carefully defined.
And Kathleen, the carefree, impulsive, and easily-bored member of the trio has to figure out the difference between burning bridges and building them.
It's still a breezy read, but it won't leave you with a sugar-hangover.
