Knit Tight by Annabeth Albert

Only show reviews with written explanations

Ah brace yourself for another angsty addition...

Here Brady and Evren both have the weight of the world on their shoulders, each with many responsibilities and too little time for themselves, let alone for something more.

Being friends is what's decided. Friends who text and call. Friends who kiss. Friends who sex each other up and rely on each other more and more.

This was a bit different in the smex department which other reviewers have commented on. I admit that I too wanted and missed those specific aspects, but really, that's just a matter of preferences. My least favorite in this series but regardless, Albert continues to deliver great storytelling with emotion, heart, and a little dirty thrown in.

This was a great quick read. I'm a fast reader but I read this in less then an hour and enjoyed every bit of it.
I knit and I loved seeing knitting reflected in the pages of this book. All of the references & inside jokes were lovely. The spicy scenes were hot too. I loved seeing the flaws of the characters and how they came together during hard times.

Ev is a kind of standoffish, I found difficult to bridge the gap to empathize with him. The rest was good.

While I was looking for just a light and enjoyable book, this one was a bit less intriguing than I would’ve hoped! It was full of cliche and was predictable. Though it did sometimes give me the cheesy love moments I was looking for!

I think this is my favorite out of the Portland Heat series, but I am a knitter, so there might be a bias. Really great read.

The overall story is just too boring with no redeeming qualities to make me want to see how it ends. On top of that Evren is blatantly biphobic and except 2 passing remarks about being too quick to judge, Brady doesn't call him on it. It feels incredibly unrealistic that Brady would start flirting with him and when he says he is actually bisexual and Evren spews prejudice, that Brady would still continue to pursue a platonic and then sexual relationship. Brady's lack of self-respect astounds me in a bad way.

I think this is the final book in this series. I think? Anyway, it's been great. I love the writer, and this series is one that has cemented her as one of my Automatic One Clicks.

I loved Ev. I loved Brady. This book dealt with real issues; parenting, loss, communication...gah. I'm a jumble of feels right now. But awesome, awesome, awesome book.
