Cozy Mystery (and Other Favorite) Books, Movies, and TV
As much as I hate giving this sort of news at the end or beginning of a year, I must sadly address that Sue Grafton, the author of the Kinsey Millhone Alphabet Mystery Series, passed away on December 28, 2017, at the age of 77. Her works were very influential to all aspects of the mystery genre, and her loss will be felt by many.
Rest In Peace, Sue. Our sympathies go out to Sue’s family and friends.

Well, it’s just a little late, but I wanted to wish you all a very happy New Year!
We’re enjoying the last few days of my daughter visiting, so I’ve still been a bit busy today!
Does anyone have any New Year’s resolutions they want to share? I’m afraid that this year I’m not feeling particularly motivated – though I do hope to read at least a few more Cozies per month than I managed last year!
