Because once you become a Spinster, there's no turning back. One hour to listen to her sister's school gossip and laugh at her dad's stupid jokes. Now she has one hour to eat her mum's overcooked dinner.
But when she slips up during her final test, her gift is identified. But unlike the others, Adelice isn't interested in controlling what people eat, where they live and how many children they have and will do anything to hide her talent from the Guild. It also means entering a world secrets and lethal intrigue. It means privilege, power and beauty, the ability to embroider the very fabric of life. Gifted with the ability to weave time and matter, Adelice is exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in the world of Arras, being chosen as a Spinster is everything a girl could want. Gennifer Albin wastes no time and jumps right into the action. But sixteen-year-old Adelice Lewys has a secret - she wants to fail. Oh my goodness, Crewel is one of the most intense, fast paced books I think Ive ever read. That's what the other girls whisper behind her back. Where a girl with talent will thrive.or be destroyed. In her free time she sits on the National Novel Writing Month Advisory Board, laughs (and cries) with her mom writers group, and watches too much Doctor Who (if that's possible). A recovering academic, she turned to writing her own books. Because once you become a Spinster, there's no turning back.Enter the world of Crewel: a world of secrets and intrigue. Gennifer Albin holds a Masters degree in English Literature from the University of Missouri.
