I finally posted my Easter Cozy Mystery Book List. I haven’t read several of the listed books, so I can’t vouch for their "coziness." So, some of the books might be less cozy and more "middle of the road" mystery.
It is difficult to believe that spring will soon be here. I know that most of us are experiencing record low temperatures right now. I have actually had to wear my "real winter" coat several times lately to walk our dog! Our truly cold days are so unusual that I haven’t had to buy a new winter coat since we moved here from Colorado fourteen years ago…
I bet that a lot of people don’t know that the movie "Chocolat" (with Johnny Depp, Alfred Molina, and Juliette Binoche) is based on a Joanne Harris cozy mystery book. I didn’t know that little piece of information until I worked on my Easter mystery book list. It is one of my favorite whimsical movies.
Anyway, I am glad to finally complete my Cozy Mystery Holiday book lists. I know I have written before about how much I enjoy experiencing the different seasons while vicariously being emerged in an author’s seasonal settings.

Found your website by accident. I LOVE cosy mysteries and enjoyed reading your blog, articles, etc. I think Chocolat is a wonderful book and would recommend J.H,s "Gentleman and Players"– a good read with a great twist.

Gaenor,
First of all, I’m glad you found us… accidentally or purposely! And, I hope you are able to use the lists.
You threw me for a loop! I looked and looked at my authors’ lists and could not find Joanne Harris listed anywhere. I looked at each of the "H" authors… thinking I had accidentally made a page with her list at the bottom. My husband finally searched Google and found that I had her listed on the Easter book list page… I had totally forgotten about that! Thanks for the recommendation of "Gentleman and Players." I will have to check it out.
