			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love reading…and I have a compulsion for knit-litterateur. I therefore started reading “<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Crazy-Purls-Drunk-Divorced-Covered/dp/0757305911/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1235810099&amp;sr=1-1">Crazy Aunt Purl’s Drunk, Divorced &amp; Covered in Cat Hair</a>” by Laurie Perry with great hopes.</p>
<p>Not to happy about the book because:</p>
<ul>
<li> Knitting is playing a secondary role. The knitting activities ensure the protagonist is introduced to new friendships and furthermore has something to do. All very plausible, but any hobby could have resulted in this. What I am missing in the book is that knitting or the projects knitted were used to give the character or storyline more depth</li>
<li> The protagonist’s happy ending = successful resumed dating activities</li>
<li> I had just finished “<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense_and_Sensibility">Sense and Sensibility</a>” by Jane Austen and I acknowledge that is a difficult book to match</li>
</ul>
<p>My search for knit-litterateur = enjoyable reading continues…</p>
