The last month of the year will be starting soon, so now’s the time to discuss our favorite Cozy Mysteries that we read this month.

Unfortunately, between holidays and traveling (as well as writing for and maintaining the site in between), I haven’t had time for much reading!

Still, for many of my other favorite authors of months past, you can go to the Most Popular & Recommended Cozy Mystery Series page on my Cozy-Mystery site for my full write-ups on many great Cozy series.

So, what have you been reading that you can recommend in November? Please be sure to tell us why you liked these Cozies so much. I know we’re all always on the lookout for more particularly good Cozy Mystery authors! (If you have a lot of Cozies you think are great, please post the ones you like the most at the top of the list.)

As always, please do not tell us about the Cozy Mysteries you did not like.

What really good Cozy Mystery did you read during November 2017 that you want the rest of us to know about, and why did you enjoy it?
