Search - Knit Fast, Die Young (Knitting, Bk 2)

Second book in the "A Knitting Mystery" series. This also was just as good as the first. Author put alot of work in creating the regular characters more fully. I never realized how deadly items associated with knitting can be! :) This is a series that is probably going to be best read in order.

"Knit Fast, Die Young" is the second Knitting mystery by Mary Kruger. In my opinion, this one is even better than the first one. When the much-hated editor of a New York knitting magazine is murdered (stabbed in the back with a knitting needle, nonetheless!) at the Freeport Wool Festival, yarn shop owner Ariadne Evans finds herself one of several suspects. This was a fast-paced mystery which kept me guessing until the end!

Great book. Murder mystery with a background of knitting. Those who knit (like me) will appreciate the characters.

Cozy mystery, second in the series. When a murder occurs at a wool festival, all the attendees and vendors are suspect. Kruger tips her hand too early and anyone who's read any of these will be able to identify the murderer very early on, even though there's one unexpected twist at the end. High point for me was an interrogation scene in which a non-knitting cop is totally befuddled by the perfectly logical actions of a yarnaholic.

I really enjoyed this cozy mystery! It's the first time I've read anything by this author. The novel was easy to follow, even with references to book 1, I didn't feel lost as to what was going on with the characters. It was a smooth, quick read. Very enjoyable! :)

I usually can guess who the guilty person is in a cozy mystery, but this time I was wrong by a long shot! Definitely looking forward to getting book one and hopefully there are more to the series beyond this one.

Enjoyed this very much, great twist at the end. Characters are developing nicely.
