Sheepish: Two Women, Fifty Sheep, And Enough Wool To Save The Planet (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
[This Review is for the Audible edition.]We're all a little sheepish."Sheepish" is the story of a city girl who falls in love and marries a farmer—and then falls in love with the farm. Her tale of raising sheep and learning to spin wool is touching and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny. Anyone who crafts with yarn will enjoy learning more about where wool comes from, and what farmers go through to bring it to us. Ok, I know two starts sounds harsh but given the title I was excited. I wasn't really sure exactly what to expect but given the title and description. It sounded like an adventure. Having read many novels in a similar vein I was surprised at the organization of the book and the authors repetitive lamenting about her partners life choices. It read more like a diary, where one is allowed to let ones ego run rampant. I still think that the story had the possibility to be better, and in all honesty it did have its moments, but overall I was left wanting.
