 A cozy cozy! , 2008-09-05
There does seem to be a bit of bad rap for this book for some reason. I don't agree with them. Although I do believe this book to be very light-hearted and not knee-deep into true crime (lets say it's a very watered down investigation)stuff(talk, details, etc), the book does deliver what the author wanted...which is a true cozy mystery that leaves its readers salivating with all of the wonderful imagery of the yarn shop & steamy coffee in Lampspun shop. To me, the characters had life & interest, but the overall setting & knitting imagery meant more.
This book is a true cozy, and really made me want to live in a cottage with all of my fiber, books and a steamy mug of coffee. Plus, the whole "unattainable love" story-line keeped me going as well!
Two thumbs up! I would at least recommend you check it out at your library if you are iffy. It's worth the time to read.

 A cute read., 2008-08-11
This was a cute summer read for me. The story was light-hearted and fun, and I enjoyed all of the characters. Not a lot of substance, but good brain candy. I'll be passing this one on to my knitting friends.

 Cardboard characters, paper-thin plot, 2008-02-26
I find nothing to recommend in this book. The characters are one-dimensional. The main character drops into a ready-made supportive community at a yarn shop, where she can indulge in one-way friendships, but the knitting sections are not realistic. The solving of the central mystery is not believable. The author seems to have picked out several trends (knitting, coffee-drinking) and tried to make the book popular by incorporating them, but the overall effect is boring.

 Wanted to love it, but just didn't, 2008-02-20
I liked the book, but had trouble both getting engaged with the characters and keeping all the women straight. And I kept reading that she was adding yarn and needles and notions to her tab and thinking about how HUGE that tab must be, especially for someone supposedly watching her budget!

Monica Ferris at her best again, 2007-07-03
If you liked the other books written by Monica Ferris, you will like this one. Well written. The plot keeps you in suspense until the end of the book. Humour is there as well. And all around good book that you must have by your bedside.
