Review # 1 was written on 2008-01-24 00:00:00 Leslie Ross Ugh, I wanted to throw this book against the wall. Not because of the plot, though I guessed who the killer was very early on. No, it's the prose that kills me - pun intended. Most of the characters have the same voice, except for Jayleen who is super-Southern-drawl woman. Everyone says "Ooooh, yeah" in response to every question. The sleuth, Kelly Flynn, is forever bemoaning her lack of knitting skills even though she's been knitting multiple things in each book. Kelly's description of touching the yarns and drinking Eduardo's coffee are the same thing every time. I was sick to death of Kelly's caffeine comments by the end of the book. Also, it wouldn't hurt to have a physical description of the main characters so that I have something to hang my imagination onto. "A Killer Stitch" had so many characters running in and out of the yarn store that I kept forgetting who was who. I started reading this series because I like mysteries and I like knitting, so it seemed like it had potential. The first two books didn't annoy me so much (and I must have skipped the third), but I don't know if I can get through another one like "A Killer Stitch". Maybe I could do it if I'm in the mood to turn off my brain while reading.
