    WHOOO HOOOOO! Been waiting on “Six Cats A-Slaying,” and here it is! Thankfully, that’s the only one this month.

    Although…I like E. J. Copperman, and I may have to try her Asperger’s Mystery series. That looks very interesting, indeed!

      Bek, I’ve been quite fond of what I’ve read by E. J. Copperman as well. If you try it and enjoy it, please be sure to let us know in the monthly recommendations posts!

      I have not tried E. J. Copperman yet. Who would you say is most similar? Since we have similar taste, I would think I would like most of what you like.

      I do have several others on this list like Diane Kelly (dog, not cat), Lea Wait (needlepoint, not cooking), and Ellie Alexander, though I haven’t started this series yet, the previous one is about a pastry chef (with recipes).

    This really helps with my selections every month. I am an avid reader. I read 3 or 4 books a week. I love cozy mystery books especially those with animals and sewing, knitting, crocheting, or libraries or cooking. Pretty much all of them. I make a list every month then go to the books store to select my books. If I can’t find a book then I order it on line. I donate the books I finish to a charity. I have been reading mysteries since I was nine years old. My mom ordered books for me The Happy Hollister series. I waited each month for my books. Then I got hooked on Nancy Drew. I also checked out books from the library. I taught elementary students for 20 years and always had a classroom library to encourage students to read. My granddaughter is a reader too. Thanks for having a great website.
