Vampire Knitting Club #7-9

Vampire Knitting Club Boxed Set: Books 7-9

Rate this book
A knitting shop in Oxford ought to be quiet…

But Cardinal Woolsey’s is anything but. Continue the adventures of witch Lucy Swift and her undead knitting club in this collection of cozy mysteries, including Lace and Lies, Bobbles and Broomsticks, and Popcorn and Poltergeists.

In Lace and Lies, the knitting shop’s been chosen to appear on TV with celebrity knitting designer Teddy Lamont, but things go wrong on and off the camera, and somebody doesn’t make it to the final credits.

Bobbles and Broomsticks takes Lucy and friends to a wedding in a beautiful, ancient church, where a beam falls and destroys more than the marriage ceremony. It’s easy to blame the death watch beetle, but is someone more sinister trying to frame the wood-boring insects for murder?

Popcorn and Poltergeists takes Lucy and Rafe to a college library where strange things are happening. A poltergeist is throwing fits, but is the obstreperous spirit a killer? Or are the ghostly temper-tantrums a warning?

Each book can be read on its own and there's no gore, bad language, or sex in these books, just a lot of humor, quirky characters, and—of course—Oxford. "This series just gets better and better."

The Vampire Knitting Club series by Nancy Warren is another series that has been collecting dust on my TBR for a while now- but I have finally got my act together (well, somewhat lol) and gotten around to reading it. And I am soooo glad I did, as it turned out to be such an unexpectedly fun read.
One of the reasons I love being on Goodreads is seeing all the book reviews and recommendations that everyone does, and then hunting down the ones that catch my eye. This series would probably never have come to my attention if it hadn’t been for my Goodreads friend, Eliza- so thank you Eliza for your recommendation (in the form of your glowing reviews) which gave me the urge to dive in, even though I didn’t get to them right away- it was such a great series to binge. But one book has now turned into a bit of an addiction lol.
This is quite a long series, so I am going to save myself some time by doing one review for the entire series. So here we go…..
The Vampire Knitting Club is a wonderful paranormal cozy mystery series, with vampires, witches, adventure, action, crime & investigation, witty humour, family, friendship, a small-town setting, dramatic developments, magic, suspense, intrigue, fun, a dash of romance, knitting/knitting group, murder/murder mysteries, whodunnit vibes, danger, secrets, a cat familiar, tangled webs, the supernatural, and a slew of wonderfully quirky characters.
To condense things for the sake of this review, Lucy Swift ‘inherits’ her grandmother’s knitting shop when her grandmother dies…. only grandma is not dead, but is definitely undead. That’s not all she discovers…. so let the adventures begin…
“ …. I run a knitting shop and I can’t knit. I’m a beginning witch who can’t always control her cat, never mind her magic….. Oh, and for some reason, I keep getting involved in murder investigations. Good thing I have my vampire knitters to help sniff out clues.
I really recommend this book/series – especially for those who love a great paranormal cozy mystery.

The series contains…
-Tangles and Treason (Prequel)
-The Vampire Knitting Club (Book #1)
-Stitches and Witches (Book #2)
-Crotchet and Cauldrons (Book #3)
-Stockings and Spells (Book #4)
-Purls and Potions (Book #5)
-Fair Isle and Fortunes (Book #6)
-Lace and Lies (Book #7)
-Bobbles and Broomsticks (Book #8)
-Cats Paws and Curses (Book #8.5)
-Popcorn and Poltergeists (Book #9)
-Garters and Gargoyles (Book #10)
-Diamonds and Daggers (Book #11)
-Herringbones and Hexes (Book #12)
-Ribbing and Runes (Book #13)
-Mosaics and Magic (Book #14)

Can’t wait to explore some of Ms. Warren’s other series now.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Nancy Warren!

Each of these books introduces another layer of paranormal being. We meet a poltergeist in this one. Sadly, we don't get to know the ghost in the depth we have in the others, witches and vampires. Maybe that is yet to come? I suggest it.

Anyway, as fun as the previous books were, this one didn't let me down. I'm getting used to not sleeping because the book has me wrapped up in all the yarn tangles.

I love the author's way of telling a story and I think that Sarah Zimmerman brings it all to life. Her ability to switch accents or voices to act out each character.

My biggest problem is not being able to find another boxed set for books 10-12. Seems like I'll have to read them one by one.

Bring 'em on! I love this series!

Oh the tangled web of secrets!

Thoroughly enjoyed this art of books. Such a light hearted tale on one hand but full of mystery and drama on the other.
Being most of the way through with several different series by Nancy Warren I can honestly say they a delight to read and I highly recommend that anyone who likes a paranormal cozy mystery do get these books.
Amazing what can be written without unnecessary cursing or sex just thrown in any old where. And there is plenty of spice between Lucy and Rafe.

Another set of engaging cozy mysteries

A perfect set of stories to enjoy while sipping tea and considering my next knitting project. Nancy has a wonderful way of keeping you in suspense but not terrifying you.

Mysteries with knitting

And a romance or two thrown in. What's not to like? But seriously, does Lucy have to create havoc wherever she goes? I'll have to keep reading the series and find out!

This is such an easy series to read I like that the books could all be read as standalones. It does sometimes mean that there's stuff repeated but not enough to put me off reading!

Fun

This is such a fun series. The interaction between the characters is good and the main characters grow with each book both the vampires and mortals.
