Dead man don't crochet

I just started to read this book and so far it is pretty good. This book has characters that people would love to hate and in my opinion if a book does not have someone to hate then it might not be a good book. The character that I do not like is the Detective Heather. She may be the good guy in this book and the other book but I just don't care for her. It's not because she is a knitter because I am a knitter and a crocheter. It's she trying so harder to get someone that she cannot get. I really want Molly and Barry to get together and be parents to Jeffery.

book review

Cute, light mystery with intersting characters. I read the first in the series, and this is a nice follow up.

I'm hooked!

Very charming storyline and likable characters. A little bit of romance with a good mystery/sleuth storyline. A good book to read over a weekend. I really like the crochet detail in the book and the extra insight into crochet; instructions, history, different varieties... Added bonuses for the crochet pattern and recipe in the back**looking forward to reading the next in the series.

Great cozy

I haven't read the first in this series, but I sure loved Dead Men Don't Crochet. The characters were great fun because they all had such different personalities. The plot was intriguing and clever, and the author did a superior job of tying up all the loose threads in the end. As a person who knows nothing about crocheting, I enjoyed the way Molly Pink, the protagonist, gradually improved her crocheting skills as she simultaneously wove together all the clues that led her to the identity of the killer. All in all, a terrific cozy.

But Dead Men are Thoroughly Entertaining!

This second-in-a-series of Molly Pink crochet murder mysteries is a delight. The characters are believable, and Molly herself is an adroit observer of life and its many layers. I especially enjoy how the characters interact and deal with the outside tugs at their lives. Crisply written for an entirely enjoyable read. Can't wait for the third installment.
