Circle of Quilters: Elm Creek Quilts, Book 9 Audiobook

" Another example of the strength of this series, this book is about staffing changes at Elm Creek. It tells the stories of the departing quilters and of those who interview for the jobs. Followed by several disapointing, historical fiction entries. I much prefer the modern perspective. "

" This is a gentle book, a nice interesting one about the lives of several people from all over the country in completely different life situations coming to one place to apply for a job and a new life. I really did enjoy it and hope to read more of her series. "

" I really liked this one, maybe even one of my favorites in the series. You get to meet a hand full of new people and interact with our old favorite quilters. "

" Very good books. I have 2 of the set. Have read some from the library, and some from the quilt guild library, but have not finished the set. "

" This was more about personalities, less quilt details. Well done! "

" Good but a little predictable. "

" I so much enjoyed the new characters and delving into their lives as they all consider how they can become "Elm Creek Quilters." I want them to all have the opportunity, though I know there is really only space for 2. Though, just pursuing the position helps their lives in ways they couldn't have foreseen. "

" This is very similar to the other books in the series. I enjoy reading about quilting, but it's not great literature. There is the usual sad part with one of the quilting family having difficult times, but all is well in the end. The characters are fairly well developed. "

" YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH ANY OF THIS SERIES "

" I very much enjoyed this one. I've read a couple of others from the series but I especially enjoyed the different stories of each of the quilters told in this book. It prompted me to get the next one in the series right away. "

" #9 in the Elm Creek Quilts series. Some of the original teachers are leaving and an ad is placed to find replacements. This book looks at the lives of 5 possible choices. Good book. "

" This book made me want to quilt! "

" Would not stand alone. It was a good introduction to new characters who will appear in future books, but there really wasn't a central story. Only interesting for those already reading the series. "

" My fav thus far. I listened to it on CD while driving and was really lovely to listen to. "

" Now I want to read the rest of this Elm Creek Quilts novels. "

" Really well developed characters, you find yourself rooting for all of them to get the job! "

" Truth be told, I didn't get through the second chapter. The characters were whiny and lame. I couldn't stand it! "

" I liked how the author told us about the characters lifes before they went to Elm Creek Manor for their interviews. It gave me an insight about how other people feel about applying for jobs. It also told us about their lifes and how they started quilting. "

" But what quilt block did they choose??This read more like short stories: the backstory of five quilters who applied to join the staff of Elm Creek Quilts. I think I'm realizing something else that appeals to me about this series: all the people associated with computer science! "

" I have thoroughly enjoyed all the books in the series but this one I had a VERY hard time putting down. "

" Another good book if you like quilting; this one evolves around the characters applying for a position as a quilt instructor at a quilting camp. Good character development. "

" I totally love these books. I think because they focus on womans lives and how the craft is the expression of their lives. It is sweet book as are the others. Not brilliant, not great literature. "

" Not my favorite book of hers, but it was okay. Two of the storylines in particular were interesting to me. I like Chiaverini's historical fiction in this series better. "

" This was more about personalities, less quilt details. Well done! "

" Light reading mystery, anyone who is a sewer or quilter would enjoy this easy read! "

" Reread after seeing it on a focus shelf at the library -- I like this series, but especially like this one, probably because I'd love to have an interview and get a job like this! And I identify both with the person who loves to cook and the others who love to quilt. "

" Great character studies. Even non quilters would enjoy. "

" Really enjoyable except for Karen and those horrid, bratty kids. So glad things ended the way they did for all concerned. A fun read. "

" I enjoyed it enough that I look forward to reading more of her books. "
