4.5 STARS

I've been a huge fan of this series since the first book and this was a sweet and sexy visit with all the characters I've come to love! But the best part of this? Fiona and Greg! I've always liked Fiona, she was always a bit of a closet bad-ass, but I never knew anything past her friendship within the knitting group. Yes, she's supportive and awesome, but here? I got to see a whole other side to her. And Greg. I don't know anything about the guy, minus being a husband to Fiona, but here ...more

Ahh bliss. I wish I could write like this. What a bloody great read.

Scenes from the City is a handful of short scenes featuring the characters from the ingeniously titled 'Knitting in the City' series. Gloriously nerdy, a bit awkward, surprisingly erotic but always snort with laughter funny, I love these characters and their unusual romances so much.

The Good, The Bad and Everything In Between

Are you a fan of this series like me? Then this novella is a must-read. I have fallen in love with each of these characters during this series, so the opportunity to read more about them was a no-brainer. Not only do we get more of Janie/Quinn, Elizabeth/Nico, Sandra/Alex, and Ashley/Drew. But we also get the awesome backstory of how Fiona and Greg met. And in true Penny Reid style, we get all the quirky and awkward and intelligence and humor we've come to expect, and then some.

Penny, Penny, Penny... I'm very unsure how much more swooning I can take!!!!
I absolutely love how each story faithfully carries the voice of each one of the ladies...
For Ashley & Drew, the couple that's the dearest to my heart: Mrs. Reid, you did not let me down, and for that I thank you. Drew is as intense, heart chattering, and immense as ever.
I'm delecting these stories by tiny pieces!
OK! cross that: from the latest developments, it seems like an even higher level of "romantisme extraordinair ...more
