All about the therapeutic nature of knitting

I began reading Knitting Through It: inspiring stories for times of trouble a few months ago, sampling the WPA's Federal Writer's Project stories and the modern essays as time and whim allowed. The writings collected by Lela Nargi were interesting and shared fascinating stories, certain to appeal ...

Love this series

+ Loose Ends Still Untied

This is the second of the series featuring cpa Kelly, who continues to feel at home in her aunts cottage in northern CO. I love to knit and spin and really like these books as light reading. "Needled to Death" gave me some tense moments, due to thinking that Kelly really should have been looking ...

MORE OF A GOOD THING

+ A Killer Stitch

I've read all of the books in this series, and like the others, was sorry to get to the end of it. Kelly and the gang seem like a growing family, we get new characters with each one, and I find that it's like a comfy blanket, the more I'm with it, the better it gets. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE ...

Monica Ferris at her best again

+ A cozy cozy!
+ A cute read.

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.

Wonderful!

+ NOT GREAT, BUT OK

I loved this book. In recent years I've read bunches of cozy mysteries and I can honestly say that this was the best of the best. Not only did the murderer remain a surprise until the end (I was SURE it was someone else), but there was not the usual plot lines like the main character nearly ...

I listened to this book over two days and thoroughly enjoyed it. I managed to clean my whole house and walk an endless beach and back (luckily alone - tears in a crowd while listening to a book can be embarrassing) while enjoying the book. The woman she has reading the novel does a wonderful ...
