New Authors to the Cozy Mystery Site, Pt. 2…

February 23, 2008

I have added more authors to the site… and I want you all to know, I really appreciate your recommendations. This time I am adding eight new authors, and also, should say that two of the authors have been added to the "cat cozy mystery" list, and one of them to the "librarian cozy" list.

Fran Stewart writes the Biscuit McKee and Marmalade Mystery Series, which features a librarian and her cat. (So, Stewart has been added to both the cat and librarian cozy lists.)

Clea Simon writes a series (the Theda Krakow Mystery Series) which features a music writer with her cat (muse)… Musetta. (So, Simon has been added to the cat cozy list.)

Marlys Millhiser writes the Charlie Greene Mystery Series… Charlie is a literary agent in California who is also a very capable sleuth.

The Three Dirty Women Landscaping, Inc Series is written by Julie Wray Herman. (Don’t you just love the name of the series?)

The Tracy Eaton Mystery Series is written by Kris Neri who, interestingly, owns a bookstore in Arizona.

When Fiona Mountain came up with her series name that has a sleuth who happens to be a genealogist, she came up with a great idea: the Natasha Blake Ancestor Detective Mystery Series.

The Olivia Brown Mystery Series and the Smith & Wetzon Mystery Series (that’s right, not Smith & Wesson!) is written by Annette Meyers. (Meyers is also half of the Maan Meyers duo… her husband Martin being the other half… who write the Dutchman Historical Mystery Series.)

Elizabeth Ironside (aka Lady Catherine Manning) has written five stand-alone mystery novels.

Latest M. C. Beaton: Hamish Macbeth

February 19, 2008

I just got the latest M. C. Beaton novel and I can’t wait to start reading it… Death of a Gentle Lady… I always look forward to Beaton’s Hamish novels. (I’m not quite as crazy about Beaton’s Agatha Raisin books. They  just aren’t holding my attention as well as they did when she first started the series.)

And, as if Death of a Gentle Lady isn’t cozy enough…  My husband and I are re-watching the Miss Marple BBC shows with Joan Hickson. I hadn’t watched the shows for a few years, but after I wrote the blog about the shows, I decided it was time to get them out and re-watch them.  I am loving them (all over again!) I really can see why Agatha Christie thought Joan Hickson was the best choice to play Miss Marple… She is perfect. And, the scenery is absolutely beautiful… (When my husband and I finally start travelling, England is the destination highest on my list of places to visit.)

So, now I have one of my favorite cozy television shows to watch and one of my favorite author’s cozy mystery to read… Perfection!

February 17, 2008

Well, what can I say? You all have let me know about some authors who look like they might make for some really good reading! I added six new authors to the site:

G. K. Chesterton wrote the classic Father Brown Mystery series of stories.

Michael Innes wrote the classic Scotland Yard Inspector Sir John Appleby Mystery Series from the 1930s to the 1980s.

Beth Groundwater writes a mystery series that takes place in beautiful Colorado Springs, where the sleuth owns a gift basket shop.

Terri Thayer writes two mystery series, one of which features a computer techie who inherits a quilt shop and a series (coming soon!) which features a rubber stamping sleuth.

Mary Saums writes two mystery series, one features two 60 something widows and the other revolves around a private investigator/backup singer in Nashville.

Arlene Sachitano has just started the quilting mystery series called Loose Threads.

New Authors to the Cozy Mystery Site:

February 12, 2008

I’m not sure if people who read this blog are aware of when I add new Cozy Mystery Authors to the site. I get most of my additions from readers of the site… When I first started this Cozy Mystery site, I only included the authors who I had actually read. Most of them were authors who I enjoyed reading, but there were a few who I had tried and hadn’t taken a liking to… I included them anyway. Just because I don’t particularly like an author’s style doesn’t mean that the author isn’t good. And, there are several very popular authors who I do not read… But, that’s another subject!

Anyway, the last few authors I included to the site are:

Sarah Andrews is a professional geologist who writes the Em Hansen and the Valena Walker Mystery Series, both of which have geologist sleuths…

Sarah Atwell writes the Glassblowing Mystery Series with Em Dowell as her sleuth…

D. B. Borton writes the Cat Caliban Mystery Series that features a 60s something sleuth… (As Della Borton she writes the Movie Lovers’ Mystery Series)…

Meg Cabot writes the Heather Wells Mystery Series which features a former teenage idol who has changed professions and is now a private investigator…

Margaret Coel writes the bestselling Wind River Mystery Series, set in the world of an Arapaho reservation in Wyoming…

Hannah Dennison is starting the new Vicky Hill Mystery Series which revolves around a journalist in a small town in England…

Denise Dietz  is the author of the Diet Club Mystery Series featuring a sleuth who is a group leader of a weight loss program…

Anthony Eglin writes the English Garden Mystery Series which features a professor of botany sleuth…

Melissa Glazer pens the Clay & Crime Series which has (for its sleuth) an owner of a pottery shop…

Brian Kavanagh writes the Belinda Lawrence Mystery Series which has a sleuth who leaves Australia to visit her great aunt and ends up inheriting a cottage in Bath…

Vicki Lane‘s Elizabeth Goodweather Mystery Series is set in North Carolina, where her sleuth owns a flower/herb farm…

Kathryn Lilley writes the Fat City Mystery Series with a main character who is a TV journalist, yet she just can’t seem to win the battle with the bulge…

Cricket McRae is the author of the Homecrafting Mystery Series which has a soap maker as its sleuth…

Louise Penny‘s Three Pines Mystery Series is set in Quebec with a chief inspector as its main character…

Joanna Campbell Slan will be writing the new Kiki Lowenstein Scrapbooking Mystery Series…

Veronica Stallwood writes the Kate Ivory Mystery Series set in Oxford, with an historical novelist as its sleuth…

Kathryn R. Wall writes the Bay Tanner Mystery Series which is set in the beautiful Hilton Head Island area…

Melinda Wells is just starting the Della Cooks Mystery Series… about a cooking sleuth…
