The Jane Austen Quilt Club (Colebridge Community, #4) Reviews
-
Enjoyed this book as much as the others. I had a sneaky suspicion that Roxanne had something to do with the disappearance of the Jane Austen Quilt but didn't know how she could have gotten it out of the package. Good twist to the story. I am glad it was found. As a quilter I hate the thought of someone stealing a quilt -- so much of the quilter goes into its creation that it can be heartbreaking for a quilter if hers goes missing just as it was for the ladies in the group. There are so many unfinished story lines that I can't wait to see them hopefully developed in the future-- the expansion of the shop, Sylvia and Harry's relationship, Sam's health, what Grandmother Davis does not want them to see in the attic, the continued development of the Taylor house, and most of all Anne--- I think she's pregnant!!!

Made it through 24 pages and had to put it down. I skimmed through to see if this ever had anything to do with Jane Austen, as I'd hoped when I reserved the book. This book was not remotely what I thought it would be. How disappointing! I feel guilty that the librarians had to look it, get it off the shelf and send it to my library for me. What a waste of everyone's time!

Great series
I love this series and so glad that each new book is a continuance of the previous. I feel a part of this community and find it difficult t o put the book down.
On to the next one. -
You would think a book with this title would be about Jane Austen and quilting, but I was solely disappointed. Hmmm...
-
Well not much really happened in this 4th installment of the Colebridge Community Series. Anne decided to go ahead and pursue her dream of expanding her flower shop. I liked her assertiveness as she went up against her husband Sam and her mother Sylvia. The ladies started both a Jane Austen Literary Society and a Jane Austen Quilt Club. This took up much of the book. Many people had difficulty coming up with a quilt square to add to the Jane Austen quilt, and then just as it was sent off to compete in a quilt show it was stolen! Luckily, this was resolved in short order with no real harm done. On to book five.
-
There mystery portion of this book was non-existent. The title felt deceptive as the Jane Austen and quilt club was just a side story to the life of Anne. Not a bad book just a boring book as Anne, the main character, tried to balance the desire for independence with being a “dutiful “ wife to her husband. Not sure what the big deal is with the ghost as it doesn’t really add much to the story line.

Can't wait for the next episode.

Cute!

Quilt club
An awesome story is told of love and friendship around an
amazing quilt! Wish we had a group of quilters with this in mind here. -
I’m very much enjoying the series.. the storyline and the characters.
-
This series is fine but I have to admit I prefer those set in East Perry and Wisconsin.
-
I enjoyed this one. I love Jane Austin. I had figured out who did it early on. Can't wait for the next book.

I feel like Ms. Hazelwood was just trying to mash a bunch of plot points into this thrown-together book. I am getting tired of her stereotype of Anne's English employee, Jean, as my English mother-in-law talks nothing like Jean. The plot (as much of it as there is) appears to be centered around a quilt that the Jane Austen club members decide to make. The "whodunit" is brilliantly clear throughout, so that takes the "mystery" out of this "cozy mystery." There was also poor proofreading when transcribing this into an ebook, which is disappointing also for the money I had to pay for it. I'm still intrigued enough to read Book #5 to see what happens to Anne, et al,
But it's gonna be a while, as I am not
Going to pay the current price for it. -
Extremely awkward writing! This was the fourth in the series and I kept puzzling over who people were. It was as if I had walked into a conversation and nobody spent any time catching me up. Most annoying. The main couple had major communication problems which I hope get resolved in the next book. And the "mystery" was lame - I figured it out right away.
-
Maybe it would have been better if I had started at the beginning of the series, but this just wasn't capturing my attention. The characters weren't really introduced, so I didn't really care about their problems, and everything felt very superficial.
-
I was kind of disappointed in this book. I was disappointed in the main character and her actions and attitude which was very selfish, self centered and whiny. I do enjoy the other characters in the book though and I will read the next in the series.
-
Wasn't my favorite. The main character is self centered and the book tended to ramble on about all of her problems coping.
-
Another good one!
-
lots of info about Jane. Not much about quilts. Not a very interesting ghost
-
Same awkward writing but characters have grown on me. I'm anxious to find out if there will be a baby by the end of the series.
-
I’m disappointed that I didn’t enjoy this book.
Some of the characters are mildly interesting. -
The plot and characters are great, but this book really needed an editor. As a retired English teacher, I cringed at the number of grammar/usage errors in this book.
