A Knit before Dying

I received this book free in exchange for an honest review.

The book takes place in a small town in Connecticut. Josie Blair has moved there from New York when her Aunt passed away and stayed to run Miss Marple Knits a yarn store and take care of her elderly Uncle Eb. She has made a few knitting friends Evelyn, Helen and a few others. A new antique store is opening next door but there is a murder and Josie starts investigating and of course stirs up some trouble for herself.

I really enjoyed the interaction of the characters. They are fairly well fleshed and even though I had not read the first book I was able to figure out the dynamics of the characters easily. I want to go back and read the 1st book.

This is the first book I've read with knitting as a central theme...and I didn't want to throw it across the room within the first 15 pages! I found it light and enjoyable. I'll be picking up Sadie Hartwell's first book in the series.
