Knit of the Living Dead by Peggy Ehrhart
4.0
Newest Adventure details:
Where: Arborville, New Jersey
Who: Pamela and the Knit and Nibble gang
This was my first visit to Arborville, and there couldn’t have been a more fun time to go then Halloween. Pamela is really nice, and I was really excited for the festivities. Things were going well...I met Bettina...she is great. Not long after we arrived things took a turn for the grizzlier side of Halloween when a young girl was screaming and reporting a dead body...pointing to the trees just at the edge of the park. We went to check it out, and lo and behold there is a dead body...little bo peep. Well it seems like nowadays nursery rhymes and fairy tales are all being retold…. so, I guess little bo peep is now a horror story. They quickly rounded everyone up and planted us in the library. That is where I got to meet some other faces like Nell, Harold, and Wilfred. The murder victim is wool blogger and Nell’s neighbor Mary Lyons...or so we all thought. Until the next day when we found out that it wasn’t Mary Lyons. She brought us up to speed that every year her and her husband do a couple's costume...he was supposed to go as little bo peep and Mary was going as the sheep. After a fight with her husband her friend Dawn was dressed as bo peep...and the victim. We tried to talk with Mary and warn her that...she was more than likely the target, and to be careful...but most of what I heard was right about Mary...she wasn’t very nice. She didn’t think any of what we had to say was legit, and ultimately, she did fall victim. Pamela, Bettina, and I were determined to sort this whole thing out…
My thoughts:
I really loved this book!! If I had to describe it in one word it would be...COZY! This had all the elements I enjoy in a cozy series. I loved the characters ( I enjoyed that they were older), the small town, community celebration, nibbles, and knitting. The mystery had more tangles...than a ball of yarn. It kept me guessing till the end. The cover is adorable...I just liked everything about it! The only thing I might add is a little more quirkiness to the characters. I can’t believe I haven’t read any of the other books in this series but rest assured...I will be!
