Cozy Mystery Book Recommendations – August 2021

August 30, 2021

We’re just about at the end of August, so it’s time to discuss our favorite Cozies that we’ve read this month!

If you read a Cozy mystery this month and want to recommend it to the rest of us, be sure to post it here! For this month, I read the first entry of Eve Calder’s Cookie House Mystery Series. For the reasons I want to recommend it, be sure to check out the blog entry!

I know we’re all always on the lookout for more particularly good Cozy Mystery authors!
