I was disappointed with this book but in all fairness this could be because I enjoyed the first two in the series so much and therefore had unfair expectations. The writing was just as good, the characters familiar and the setting just oh, so lovely. I just felt like the story didn't go anywhere at all but perhaps that is me being greedy. I think Gil McNeil is a talented writer and I enjoyed the first two books immensely. this was my least favorite of the series. I think they are cute books and, as opposed to some reviewers, I don't really care that there isn't a big dramatic plot and resolution. My problem with this one is that it seems like Jo is crabby all the time. In the other books, she's tired and frazzled, but just gets on with it - in this one she's seems bitter and angry about her life, and it didn't leave me feeling as good about her as previously.
What do You think about Knit One Pearl One (2011)?
As entertaining as Gil McNeil's other two. Light reading. I enjoy the knitting references.
