Joan Alberts says
How to knit a Murder by Sally Goldenbaum is @13 in the series..
I have read the first 12 and recommend this series highly…
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Joan, thanks for the recommendation!
Gram says
I’m with your Joan. I’m really looking forward to the new Seaside Knitters.
Bek says
OH MY! A plethora of “my books” in November! I do have the Joe Grey already on preorder, though, I just HADDA!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Bek, it definitely looks like it will be a good month!
Susy S says
Bek, I may as well quit eating now. Too many books coming out in the next two months that I REALLY want.
I guess I can start making Christmas wish lists now and hope not too many more show up.
At least I will have more time to read starting next year (retiring in January!!!!!).
Bek says
I KNOW, right? LOL, I may have to wait until we have paperback versions of some of these, but they are on my list! I have over 1000 books on my “to read” list, and thanks to Danna, and her unending efforts, that grows daily! I read a book about every two day, so someday I may whittle that list down a little!
Janice G says
Amazon is showing a new book by Hannah Dennison – Dangerous Deceptions at Honeychurch Hall – coming out on 11/1/18. It seems to only be in paperback and the cover art looks very different from her other books in this series so I suspect it is a different publisher or self published. I do like this series so I’ll probably order it.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Janice, thanks! I’ll have to add that one to the list.
MJ says
There seems to be some confusion as to the release date for this book. If you scroll down at Amazon’s site to the publisher it says the release date is April 16, 2019. The publisher is ‘Constable’. I checked Barnes and Noble and they also have a release date of of 4/16/19, as does the Fantastic Fiction website.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
MJ and Janice, well, either way I’ll need to add it to the list… for now I’ll probably go with the April release, as that seems more likely, but I’ll also try to keep an eye on it.
Bek says
If you are speaking of the Joe Grey book, I went to check, and the release date has, indeed, changed. I’m bereft…That was to be my Christmas present to myself! Now I have to pick a new one!
Loralee Petersen says
So many new books to watch for! I keep track of a lot of new books for the library where I work but I truly appreciate these lists of what’s coming up in my personal favorite genre.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Loralee, I’m glad that the lists are helping you keep up on your favorites!
MJ says
YES! Another book in the the Wine Country Mystery series. This is an EXCELLENT series written by a consummate professional, with reporting experience on ABC and Washington Post. 🙂
I was REMISS in not mentioning Ellen Crosby and this series in the ‘favorite series……….five books or more” post.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
MJ, I’ll add it on there then!
Janice M says
It’s Christmas come early for me with new books coming from Amanda Flower, Kate Carlisle, Vicki Delaney, Krista Davis, Daryl Wood Gerber, Dawn Eastman, Lena Gregory, V.M. Burns, and Lynn Cahoon!
Gotta get my fingers ready to turn some serious pages and my hands to hold the books! : )
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Janice M, I’m with you! I absolutely love it when several of my favorite Cozy Mystery authors release their books in a month. (And some of my favorite authors only release one book a year, so that doesn’t happen all that often…)
Kathryn Atkins says
Ever since I discovered the Cozy Mystery site it has been my go to at least once a week! I do so love to read! I began at age 6 and most likely have not had a book to read in my possession since then. I’m now pushing 60 really hard! So Very Great to have this website to keep me up to date, but have added so many new authors that I can hardly remember who has new ones out! I play catch up all the time. Thank you so much for providing us with this spot where we can find our beloved authors old and new books. Makes me sooo Happy!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Kathryn, you’re welcome, and I’m glad that the website has helped you find new books by authors both new and old!
