review 1: This novel was escapist, delightful, and especially fun for someone who loves to see those little nods to knitting and spinning, although the author was obviously very careful to keep the detail light to keep from bogging the story down. Excellent balance. Was it formulaic? Absolutely! Was it predictable, contrived, and maybe even a little simplistic? Yeah, probably. Was it escapist and fluffy? Yup! It never purports to be anything else, and it does what it set out to do: provide a few hours of light and pleasant entertainment while throwing a skein to the fiber fiends. And how nice it was to see a yarny novel that wasn't also a murder mystery!!!A note on the supposed sexual elements: sadly, soft-core porn this ain't. There are a few quickie (hehe) mentions of "he moved ov... moreer her" and such, but there is nary a mention of naughty bits, no "dirty words", and no explicit acts. I think the dirtiest it ever gets is "manhood". It's a step beyond "shut the door and fade to black", but barely, and it was incredibly tame compared to a lot of contemporary romance. I suppose my granny might be shocked, but then again, probably not.
review 2: it was good, it was about a girl that inherited a cottage on a sheep farm. she knew the lady that died, a famous knitter, she knit too. she was making the cottage into a knit shopthe man that lived in the main house and owned all the sheep got the rest of the property. he didnt like her therebut they fell in love. her x who tried to kill her showed up, and was killed on a bridge in a car accident along with other peoplethey got married and she got preg. less
