Cozy Mystery News – February 2023

I’ve got one piece of Cozy Mystery news for you about an established site author!

Edith Maxwell (aka Maddie Day & Tace Baker) will be putting out A Questionable Death and other Historical Quaker Midwife Stories, which will be a collection of both new and already published short stories in the Quaker Midwife Mystery Series, starring Quaker midwife and sleuth, Rose Carroll, set in Massachusetts during the 1880s. Maxwell also writes the Local Foods Mystery Series, and, as Maddie Day, the Country Store Mystery Series and the Cozy Capers Book Group Mystery Series.

January 30 to February 5, 2023

Here is the list of new releases for January 30 to February 5! Very short list again this week – just one actually – but something from a series I’ve highlighted recently (Linda Reilly’s Grilled Cheese Mystery Series)!

Linda Reilly: Cheddar Late Than Dead (3rd in Grilled Cheese Mysteries)

Cozy Mystery Book Recommendations – January 2023

January is almost over, so it’s time to discuss our favorite Cozies that we read this month!

If you read a Cozy mystery this month and want to recommend it to the rest of us, be sure to post it here! For this month, I read the first entry of Linda Reilly’s Grilled Cheese Mystery Series. For the reasons I want to recommend it, be sure to check out the blog entry!

So, what have you been reading that you can recommend in January? Please be sure to tell us why you liked these Cozies so much. I know we’re all always on the lookout for more particularly good Cozy Mystery authors! (If you have a lot of Cozies you think are great, please post the ones you like the most at the top of the list.)

As always, please do not tell us about the Cozy Mysteries you did not like.
