Sonya says
Adding the cookbook and candy shop series to my “check out these books” list :). Thank-you for all the time and energy to help us!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Sonya, I hope you enjoy them!
Marja says
Hee! Eliza Doolittle and Professor Higgins team up as investigators. ..! Sounds delightful. Need to check these out for sure.
Glad to see another of Perry’s William Monk mysteries is out soon. I love them.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Marja, I think Eliza and Professor Higgins sound like a fun duo, too!
Margaret M. says
So happy to see a new Halloween theme mystery in the Celebration Bay Mysteries by Shelley Freydont, TRICK OF DECEIT. I have enjoyed this series so far.
I have not yet tried out the Whales and Tails Mysteries by Kathi Daley, but since this selection is a Halloween theme, I think I will give it a try. I started out of order in other series when I stumbled on a Halloween theme mystery and decided to continue with the series.
And as always, thanks for the list Danna, it really is a great help.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Margaret M, I absolutely love it when the holiday Cozies start being released! I can hardly wait!
LindaMH says
Some really good ones coming up! I’m especially looking forward to The Marsh Madness by Victoria Abbott and Trick or Deceit by Shelley Freydont. Danna, Thanks so much for putting this list together. As always, I appreciate all you do. Yours is the first site I visit each day!!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
LindaMH, I agree about September’s list of really good ones! AND thank you for the very kind words about my site!
Margaret StashEmpress says
Looking forward to the new Elliza Doolittle & Professer Higgins story — loved the first one!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Margaret, thanks for the D.E. Ireland shout-out!
louise says
I was just wondering of (the) books that are available in Kindle edition will they be available in mass paperback. I really enjoy the feeling of having a book in my hand to read, especially my cozy mystery books.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Louise, yes, most of these books are available in either paperback, mass market, or hard cover formats.
Pat says
Hi Sometimes I try and contact the authors and the email address is incorrect, don’t they check to see if it is correct before allowing it?
Thank you. Love the listings.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Pat, I don’t know if they check their email addresses, but they must get a lot of emails from their readers. I’d try looking at their websites and then go to their contact page…
Stevie says
Just found your site. Made my day. I must make a list of what I’ve read. I’ve bought several second copies of the same book. I hope I’ve not purchased third copies. The library is happy for them for their book sale.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Stevie, welcome to the Cozy Mystery site!
I have been known to buy the same book once or twice (or a whole lot more times!) >>> but now I keep lists of all my favorite and “*****YUCK” authors, which has stopped me from doing that. On several occasions, before I kept my lists, I would keep having a déjà vu feeling, which would persist while I read several chapters >>> before I realized I was reading a book I had already read. Good grief!
Anyway, welcome to the site!
Pam says
I always carry with me a small spiral notebook with the next 2 or 3 books I need to read in my favorite series. That way, if I am near some of my favorite new or used bookstores, I know what I need! Now I just have to remember to mark off the ones as I read them! 🙂
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Pam, it sounds like you’re very organized! I know what you mean about marking off the books as you read them. I try to “make myself” do that as soon as I finish a book. Now I am leaving the books I have finished in my current folder on my Kindle until I mark them off of my (very long!) list.
Cuppacozy says
I have a September release to add – Pane and Suffering by Cheryl Hollon from Kensington books. Sounds like it’s the first in a new series – Webb’s Glass Shop.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Cuppacozy, thank you for telling us about Ceryl Hollon’s Pane and Suffering. (She’s on my list of authors to get posted on the Cozy Mystery site.)
cozycourt says
Janet Evanovich released the fourth novel in the Fox and O’Hare series on Tuesday Sept. 15th, called The Scam
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Cozycourt, thank you for letting us know about the fourth Fox & O’Hare mystery. I just added it to the pages of Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg. Thanks, again!
Linda says
Have you read any of Carol Dean Jones cozies? The latest is: THE RESCUE QUILT (A Quilting Cozy Book 7) by Carol Dean Jones (Sep 10, 2015). There appears (on Amazon) to be 6 prior ones. I’ve not heard of this series and didn’t see it on your lists; but I may have missed it.
Thanks,
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Linda, no, I haven’t read any of her mysteries…
Shari says
Jana DeLeon just released her 7th book in the Miss Fortune series – Hurricane Force.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
