Four New-to-the-Site Cozy Authors

I’m adding four more new authors to the site. As usual, these are authors I’ve heard of from visitors to the site, either through comments or by email.

 Allison Brook is a former Spanish teacher who grew up in Brooklyn, New York, then Long Island, off the coast of New York. She has studied in Mexico and Spain to become fluent in Spanish, and has written in the genres of mysteries, romantic suspense, and young adult fiction. Her mystery series are the Haunted Library Mystery Series, and (under the name Marilyn Levinson) the Golden Age of Mystery Book Club Mystery Series and the Lydia Krause/Twin Lakes Mysteries.

 Kellye Garrett has had a career working in Hollywood, including working as a production assistant for the TV series Angela’s Eyes and writing for the CBS show Cold Case. She has also been a magazine editor, and holds a B. S. in magazine writing from Florida A&M as well as an MFA in screenwriting from the University of South California. She currently lives in her home state of New Jersey, working in New York at a media company. Her mystery series, the Detective By Day Mystery Series, stars Dayna Anderson, a struggling Hollywood actress.

 Melinda Mullet was born in Dallas, and has spent time in school in Texas, Washington D. C., England and Austria, pursuing a legal degree. She has spent many years as a practicing attorney before beginning her career as an author. She now lives near Washington, D. C. She writes the Whisky Business Mystery Series, starring a photojournalist who has inherited a whisky distillery in the Scottish Highlands.

 Ashley Weaver has worked in libraries most of her life, serving as a page and a clerk before getting a MLIS (Master of Library and Information Science). She now serves as a branch manager at Oberlin, the headquarters of the Allen Parish Libraries in Louisiana. Her mystery series, the Amory Ames Mystery Series, stars a wealthy young woman in 1930s Britain.

  3. I’m happy to see Allison Brook added to the site. I have “Death Overdue” from her Haunted Library Mystery series on my TBR pile…I’m waiting until October to read it, since it’s Halloween themed (I bought the book after Halloween last year). I’m glad there’s a second release in the series this year…although, I’m not sure how I’m going to squeeze in all of the Christmas themed books that I want to read this upcoming holiday season.

    Melinda Mullet’s Whisky Business Mystery series sounds interesting. It seems that my list of cozy series that I want to read grows longer each day.

  4. We have completed the first two Ashley Weaver books and are looking forward to more. We checkout audio books from libraries using Over Drive however the library is inconsistent with having the books available or on a waiting list of being #46 in line with only one book available.
    Can you recommend an inexpensive way to buy audio books?
    Thank you,
    Go with Jesus

    • Bill, unfortunately no. I believe the market leader is still Audible.com, which is now $15 a month for one book a month, which feels pretty steep to me >>> especially as when I listened to books on tape more regularly, I would definitely go through more than that per month!

  6. I was happy to see that you added Ashley Weaver to the site. Her books are great. I also read and enjoyed Death Overdue by Allison Brook. It makes it so much easier to keep up with new books in series that I like when they are listed on your site.

  7. Oooh! I can’t wait to read Single Malt Murder! And Murder at Brightwell is in my sweet spot in terms of historical time periods.
    Thanks, as always, for your recommendations!
