Book ID/图书代码： 01240012B56732
English Summary/英文概要： #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber returns to Seattle’s beloved Blossom Street in this heartfelt tale of friendship, renewal, and discovering what’s truly important in life.
For years Libby Morgan dreamed only of making partner in her competitive, high-pressure law firm. She sacrificed everything for her career—her friends, her marriage, her chance at creating a family. When her boss calls Libby into his office, she assumes it will finally be good news, but nothing can prepare her for the shocking reality: She’s been let go and must rebuild her entire life . . . starting now.
With no job prospects in sight, Libby reaches out to old friends and spends her afternoons at A Good Yarn, the local knitting store. There she forms a close bond with Lydia, the sweet-natured shop owner; Lydia’s spirited teenage daughter, Casey; and Casey’s best friend, Ava, a shy yet troubled girl who will shape Libby’s future in surprising and profound ways.
As A Good Yarn becomes a second home—and the women a new kind of family—Libby relishes the different person she’s become. She even finds time for romance with a charming and handsome doctor who seems to be her perfect match. But just as everything is coming together, Libby must make a choice that could forever change the life she holds so dear.
Warmly told and richly textured, Starting Now is filled with the promise of new beginnings and the unending delights of companionship and love.

莉比在一家充满竞争以及高强度压力的法律事务所工作，多年来她唯一的梦想便是成为事务所的正式员工，为此她牺牲了一切：朋友、婚姻以及组建家庭的机会。当事务所的老板将莉比叫入办公室，莉比满心猜想自己的付出终究迎来了回报。然而现实总是残酷得让人措手不及---她被辞退了。她必须从此刻起重建自己的整个生活。
出于眼下没有什么适合的工作，莉比便一边联系着一些老朋友，一边在当地一家名叫“好好毛线店”的小纺织店里消磨着每日的午后时光。在那里，莉比认识了一群朋友，并与她们建立了紧密的联系：生性甜美的店主莉迪亚；莉迪亚活泼的女儿凯西；以及凯西的好友伊娃--生性害羞，却又有些迷糊的少女。殊不知，正是这一群人对莉比的未来产生了惊人且深远的影响。
“好好毛线店”从此成为了莉比的第二个家，而这群女人则共享着另一种全新的家庭生活----与此同时，莉比也细细地品味着当前这个与以前完全不同的自己，她甚至找到了时间去经营一段浪漫的恋爱关系，认识了一名英俊且极富魅力的医生；并且莉比相信他将是一名完美的终身伴侣。然而就在这一切都即将步入正轨的时候，莉比又将面对另一个选择的难题，而这一选择将从此彻底改变她当前所珍视的生活。
