About book Spin A Wicked Web (2009)

This is the third installment of Cricket McRae's Home Crafting Mystery series. As with the first two, I found it a quick and entertaining read. As a side note, this book is notable in that I believe it is the first book I've read in which someone "googles" something. Ha! The tone of this book was fun: Sophie Mae is finding her voice, and it's rather snarky. She has a great blend of confidence and sarcasm, but served with a great heaping dose of self-deprecation. My one complaint would be that I felt as if the reveal slipped past without my noticing it. I've experienced this with other mystery novels, too..it's almost like there are too many loose ends and red herrings to bring closure to, and it gives it a sloppy, hurried feeling. In this case, and without giving too much away, I am referring specifically to when we find out what happened to Sophie Mae's car. It just felt tossed in as an afterthought. I'm curious to see where McRae goes with this series. Cadyville seems to be a small, rural-ish town. As we enter into the fourth book, is it going to remain believable that this level of lethal crime exists? Even Miss Marple traveled once in a while... Honestly, the thing I liked best about this book was the crafting content - mainly spinning and soapmaking. I didn't especially like the main character, Sophie Mae. There were times when I just wanted to slap some sense into her! Why do so many cozies have sleuths that rush off to confront murder suspects in secluded places, without even letting someone know where they're going, without taking a charged cell phone...? It helps the story move along, I guess, but I have trouble relating to characters with so little common sense.
