I don’t have much news to report this month, but what I do have is really great news for a lot of us. So here goes…
For all of us who follow Lorna Barrett‘s Booktown Mystery Series>>> Tricia Miles (the owner of Haven’t Got a Clue mystery bookstore) will be back for a new crime-solving adventure. Lorna Barrett (aka Lorraine Bartlett and L.L. Bartlett) writes this very popular New York Times bestselling series – so I know there are a lot of us who are excited about this 12th Cozy. An interesting thing about this series is that it’s a Cozy Mystery series with a sleuth who is a fan of Cozy Mystery series, so there is a sprinkling of some of our favorite Cozy authors within each book.
There is also some great news for those of us who read Sandra Bretting‘s Missy DuBois Mystery Series. Sandra Bretting has just been given the go-light on her fourth, fifth, and sixth books. Sandra Bretting not only writes this series, which features Missy – the owner of the Crowning Glory hat shop – but she is also a freelance journalist.
As I said at the beginning of this entry, I don’t have a lot of news to report this month, but what I do have is great news!

Thanks for the update! Regarding Lorna, Lorraine and L.L.: I’m looking forward to the new installment. I’ve yet to read “Title Wave” (but it’s on my to-read list). I’ve already read the Victoria Square mysteries. Will she be adding a new one to the collection soon?

Luisa, I haven’t heard anything about a new Victoria Square Mystery recently.
Luisa says
Thanks anyway, Danna. I’ll be on the lookout. By the way, I enjoyed browsing through your list of TV shows and movies. My husband and I have viewed almost all of them. (We also are “empty-nesters.”) We’ll soon be checking out those that we’ve never watched.

Luisa, I’m glad that the lists are helping you! There’s definitely a lot of quality Cozy TV out there, but it can be hard to find a good place to start (or in your case, locate the shows that have “fallen through the cracks” over the years).
Bev says
Does anyone know about Patricia Driscoll’s books about Grace Tolliver in Cape Cod. She wrote in 2013 and 2015 – can’t seem to find info about any other books. I didn’t see anything on her author’s page. Just wondering??
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Bev, as far as I know, those are the only two books Patricia Driscoll has written.
Sophia Z says
I’ve started reading a Sandra Bretting book after receiving it from Netgalley and all I can say is, I’ve found a new favourite author. I love your site and find it very helpful and fun. So thank you.
