shegotlost 's review for:

The Vampire Knitting Club by Nancy Warren
3.0

3.5
This is the first time i dive in the cozy mystery genre so i didn't knew what to expect, i just hope that whatever that i end up encountered wasn't silly or over the top i can say that this book was neither of that.

I had a good time reading this book as a yarn addict, I admit I prefer a crochet hook to knitting needles and I may or may not empathize with Lucy about my inability to knit, I really love the atmosphere of an old knitting shop and the beautiful description of handmade sweaters, I liked Lucy and I fell for Nix and now i want a cat.

On the other hand I feel that the book drag a bit in the middle but rush out to solve the mystery and squeeze awkwardly the "solution" of the grimore conflict in a even more rushed way. I really would love to know more about the knitters but o well I suppose there are other 12 books for that still i would love to see more of them
Spoilerand maybe is just me but i would had liked more if the grandmother was really dead i thing it would given the book a bit more of i dont know urgency or something that is missing for me in this book but maybe is the genre
