The Cozy Mystery List Blog

I have just added a new page to my site. It is called the "Cozy Mysteries by Themes." If you click on the links on the page, it will take you to the exact blog that I wrote about the different featured subjects.

So far I have an animal category which includes the cozy mystery lists that feature dogs, cats, birds, birdwatchers, pet stores, pet sitting, and veterinarians.

The next category is the cozy mystery holidays. This is followed by the hobbies, which includes the cozy mystery books that feature beading, needlework, knitting, Sudoku, and books with the antique theme.

In the profession category, I only have ministers (who happen to be women) and veterinarians (the same as the animal theme books.) but, with a little time, I plan to have a whole lot of different professions that our favorite sleuths belong to.

This is just the very beginning, but I am excited about the new page because I think that it will make it easier for people who come to the site to be able to quickly access which cozy mystery authors feature different animals, professions, hobbies, and interests. I hope that having all of these lists on one central page will make it easier for the site’s readers…

It looks like our fall has finally arrived! Right now I am rejoicing about the change in weather… There are some negatives that go along with a cooler and wetter climate, but those are pretty minor for me (right now.) I just like to be reminded that there are four seasons to our year, and what better way than cold, wet rain.

(Unfortunately, our dog has a lot of allergies… which means that I have my work cut out for me at this time of the year. One year, when I wasn’t particularly diligent, she developed an infection in one of her paws that required several trips to the emergency, after-hour veterinary clinic, not to mention several trips to our vet during office hours.)

Anyway…. Is there any better way to pass a dreary October day than reading a wonderful cozy mystery? I am guessing that cozy-mystery-book-reading is pretty much at the top of most of our lists for days like this one. Unfortunately, I am sitting here blogging while waiting for a visit from the plumber. Yes, indeed! Not a great way to spend what I consider our first official day of fall. However, since my husband nor I know how to fix our plumbing problem, here I sit… waiting.

I guess that technically, I could be spending my waiting time reading my current cozy mystery… Great thought! I think I’ll do just that. And probably, as soon as I get to a cliff-hanging moment in the book… the doorbell will ring. Oh well, maybe that’s what I should have done to begin with… Who knows, if I had been enjoying my current M. C. Beaton novel, the plumber could have already arrived!
