Book #6

Knit Two, A Friday Night Knitting Club novel by Kate Jacobs.

I started this book with high hopes. I remember loving the first book, The Friday Night Knitting Club. Shortly into the story, however, I knew this sequel wasn't going to do justice to the original. I slogged through it anyway, hoping it'd get better, but it never did. If anything, it continued to get worse, right through to the last page. The final wrap up seemed like a "Gee, the publisher only wants 300 pages and I'm already on page 296! How can I end this thing quickly without having to do too much rewriting?" moment.

I clicked on amazon.com and am surprised by all the 4 and 5 star ratings. I'm going with a 2.5 star rating and that's probably more than it deserves. My real recommendation is don't waste your time on this book, but if you do, don't be suckered into buying it. Get it from the library.
