4 | Female Detective Investigates Dark Side of High-Stakes Horse Racing | Two lovers--both promising young jockeys--are murdered. Their legs are broken, carrots are stuffed in their mouths, and a note left near their bodies, stuck to a racing form, says "sacrificial lambs". A racehorse owner--wealthy, at home in his well-secured mansion--is murdered.

3 | Well-Written Novel, Easy-to-Guess Ending | THERE WAS AN OLD WOMAN is creepy, at least at the beginning. A young museum curator (Evie) returns to her childhood home to deal with the affairs of her elderly, alcoholic, terminally-ill mother. Evie is astonished to find that her mother's house has become virtually uninhabitable. A few months earlier, at Evie's la... | [] | 0062117602 | 0062117602 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,365,214,135,000 | 7 | false |
4 | Collection of Patterns for Lightweight Tops and Sweaters | When I ordered LIGHT & LAYERED KNITS, I expected a collection of patterns for layered garments that were intended to be layered together, that would be shown on models wearing the garments in layers. Instead, this is a collection of lightweight tops (and a few sweaters) that are mostly suitable for layering.

5 | Pretty Motif Designs Representing Classic and Exotic Sunflower Varieties | I love sunflowers, but never knew before that sunflowers come in lots of colors--not just yellow and gold. Nor did I know that sunflowers also come with differently shaped seed heads, so that some (e.g., the Giant Sungold) almost look like chrysanthemums!<br /><br />In 50 SUNFLOWERS TO KNIT, CROCHET, & FELT, well-know... | [] | 1250025133 | 1250025133 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,363,832,014,000 | 7 | true |
3 | Collection of Patterns for Reasonably Cute Toys | KNITTED CATS & KITTENS has patterns for some reasonably cute knitted toys, but most don't look much like cats or kittens to me. My favorites are: "Fluffy Cat" (a fairly realistic kitten, knit in white angora yarn); "Floppy Moggy" (a fairly realistic "longhair" kitten, knit in black fur yarn); "Doorstop Cat" (a brown ... | [] | 1844488462 | 1844488462 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,363,318,188,000 | 8 | true |
3 | Collection of Randy Cohen's Advice Columns From the New York Times | BE GOOD is a collection of ethical advice columns that author Randy Cohen wrote for the New York Times (as "The Ethicist") between 1999 and 2011.

5 | Collection of 52 Quick-to-Knit Patterns for Great Gifts | THE KNITTER'S YEAR, by well-known designer Debbie Bliss, has 52 patterns for quick-to-knit projects that make great gifts.

3 | Collection of Patterns for Fibre Company Yarn | KELBOURNE WOOLENS VOLUME 1 is a collection of patterns written for Fibre Company yarn.

5 | Attractive, Challenging Patterns for Footwear Knitted in Round, From Heel to Toe | As a knitting book collector, I like KNITTING SCANDINAVIAN SLIPPERS AND SOCKS for several reasons. First, the book is technically interesting, because the slippers and socks are knitted in a traditional Scandinavian manner--in the round, from the back of the heel to the toe. Also, the designs use hard-wearing strande... | [] | 1604680490 | 1604680490 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,361,408,248,000 | 21 | true |
5 | Step-by-Step Reference for Replicating Vintage Sweater Designs in Today's Yarns and Sizes | VINTAGE DESIGN WORKSHOP is really a design reference book. It's a book that explains in detail how to replicate an old 20th-century knitting pattern (especially one published between 1920 and 1960) to fit a woman of today, using today's yarns and knitting tools.

4 | Decent Book That Teaches With Step-by-Step Screen Shots | DROID COMPANION is a decent book, but it doesn't cover my Motorola Droid Razr (Model XT912).

For example, it discusses the "Menu" button (with 4 squares) as an important navigatio... | [] | 1118177649 | 1118177649 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,360,981,690,000 | 1 | true |
5 | Expanded Edition of Pioneering Textile Artist's Classic Work | This expanded edition of Mary Walker Phillips' CREATIVE KNITTING is a much, much better book than the original hardcover (published in 1971).

The text and knitting diagrams appear to be unchanged, but it's nice to see the knitted hanging... | [] | 0486499154 | 0486499154 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,360,977,607,000 | 42 | true |
3 | Dolls That Illustrate Six Favorite Fairy Tales | Generally I love Fiona Goble's books with designs for knitted toys, but I definitely do not care for FAIRY TALE KNITS.

3 | Another Collection of Previously Published Patterns From Vogue Knitting Magazine | THE ULTIMATE HAT BOOK is another collection of patterns that were mostly published previously in Vogue Knitting magazine: this time the focus is hats.

3 | Collection of Patterns for Rowan Tweed Yarns | Martin Storey is one of my favorite designers, but this collection has only two patterns that I would consider knitting: the Skye Poncho (with an elaborate interlocking cable in front), and the Cromarty (aka "Aviemore") coat (sideways-knit, with Fair Isle fronts and collar, and fishtail triangles in back).<br /><br />... | [] | 1596688513 | 1596688513 | AEYGPUCRKH7G4VM22FM3VAKSQ23Q | 1,360,290,035,000 | 43 | true |
3 | Delivers on Devil Creature, But Mostly Describes Life in Locked Mental Institution | THE DEVIL IN SILVER is more a critique of the American mental health treatment system than a work of fiction designed to entertain a reader.

5 | Technically Advanced, Attractive, "Tour de Force" Patterns for Directional Knitting | Nothing about knitting is truly "revolutionary"--a few centuries' worth of dedicated knitters have discovered (or independently rediscovered) everything there is to know about knitting.
