Knit Fast, Die Young: A Knitting Mystery de Mary Kruger

Although I did love the means of murder (a knitting needle), the characters werren’t very engaging. By the end of the novel, I still wasn’t sure who was whom. Not my favorite knitting mystery series!

Meanwhile, Ari sizes up the suspects(who are all friends or customers) and not recognizing the danger.

Ariadne, who has been going through a divorce and worrying about her daughter, feels she must start investigating when she seems to be under the suspicion of detective Joshua Pierce. Or is she?

While a cute little cozy, this book was nothing special. I would have liked more engaging characters. I enjoyed the “talk” of yarn and sweater projects, but the patterns provided at the end were dull. The author admits that she is not a knitting designer and that shows.… (més)
