NEEDLED TO DEATH by Maggie Sefton
Needled to Death - Maggie Sefton

Kelly and Jennifer take a knitting group out to Vickie's farm to see her alpacas. When they get there Kelly finds Vickie dead. The police seem to look at Vickie's estranged husband for the murder. Kelly is not happy with that and starts digging deeper. When Vickie's daughter ends up dead, Vickie knows the police are not looking in the right direction. She figures it out as she is doing the books for the attorneys for Vickie's estate. But how does she prove who murdered Vickie? And who murdered Vickie's daughter? Why?

 

I enjoyed this story. I have read other stories in this series (out of order.) I like the main cast of characters. Each has their flaws and quirks. They are like old friends to me. This time I did figure it out (alright, so it was the last quarter of the book.) I also figured out the motive although it was circumstantial until the end. I liked the mystery and solution. Kelly is not afraid to ask questions but man, she came close this time. Good thing she had back-up.

 

I look forward to more of the series.

I would have enjoyed this more if there were a Love Triangle.
Needled to Death (Knitting Mystery Series #2) by Maggie Sefton -

I just wanted to finish this book and get it over with. There were a couple of chapters towards the end that felt like I was reading with marbles in my mouth. Too much unnecessary language that distracted from the point of the story which was to figure out what happened to Vicki and Debbie.

 

Characters were introduced but then things were left hanging. I still don't know why Eva Bartok had to be mentioned even if she had something to do with the evidence left at the scene of the crime.

 

Kelly needs a serious caffeine intervention. The way she drinks coffee, refers to coffee, and her friends jokes about what she's like when she doesn't have caffeine aren't funny anymore.

 

Kelly's relationship with Steve is moving at such a snails pace that I don't care if the two get together or not. 

 

I don't know what to do about this series. Should I hold on to it so I can see if Kelly whines about something else? Or should I just give up now and save my time for better things?
