A second review of Embroidering Andrea

FIVE STARS     Addictive Mystery Wrapped Around Quilting January 2, 2015
Format:Kindle Edition
Embroidering Andrea continues the quilting bee based stories in the first two novels by Barbara Sullivan. The quilting bee and accompanying mystery theme draws the main character to search deeper into her own life history. The monthly bee brings the now familiar characters together for a night of quilting, but also opens up the door for murder and mayhem.

The husband and wife characters of Rachel and Matthew Lyons are an engaging couple with a relationship that seems true to life. The author shows the couple in a positive light although they can still have their difference of opinion which makes a much more pleasant read than novels that feel the need to have strong conflicts between spouses throughout a story.

The refreshing main characters offset the deep tragic lives of many of the secondary characters. Embroidering Andrea is not an easy read and the topic may be off-putting to some. However, keep reading as the story will draw you in and hold you hostage until the final reveal.

The Quilted Mystery series is well worth checking out. Hopefully the author is hard at work on the next installment.

This review is based on a complimentary copy of the novel provided by the author in exchange for our review.
