I just added four new authors to the Cozy Mystery Site. These authors have been recommended to me by site readers. They are new to me, but look very interesting…
J.F. Englert writes the Bull Moose Dog Run Mystery Series which features a Black Labrador Retriever and his often-confused owner… The Black Lab (Randolph) is the narrator of this mystery series…
Rebecca M. Hale (a patent attorney and New York Times bestselling author) writes the Cats and Curios Mystery Series which features the new owner of an antique shop and two pets (cats)…
Spencer Quinn (aka Peter Abrahams) writes the Chet and Bernie Mystery Series, which is told from Chet’s point of view. Chet is the loyal dog of Bernie Little… As an aside: I love finding authors (especially mystery authors!) who are really successful at their profession, who write mysteries for children and/or young adults (the Echo Falls Mystery Series). Abrahams is one of those authors. (As Abrahams, he is not cozy.)
Beth Solheim writes the Sadie Witt Mystery Series which is a paranormal mystery series. Both Sadie and Belly LaGossa (Sadie’s dog) are able to see the dead…

I love reading your blog and often use the website for ideas, but have not previously commented. However, I couldn’t resist commenting on the first Spencer Quinn book, Dog on It. I saw it recently in a bookshop and bought it on impulse. Generally, my mystery taste is now for cozies and, if animals are involved, cats. To give you an idea of my tastes, I love JoAnna Carl, Joanne Fluke, Joan Hess, Lilian Jackson Braun, Rita Mae Brown and Diane Mott Davidson. When I saw this book I thought it sounded interesting. Once I started reading it, I couldn’t put it down and stayed up all night! It’s exciting, entertaining, and, as it’s from Chet’s point of view, intriguing. I loved the way Chet didn’t always know what was happening and would be distracted from the sleuthing Bernie was doing. I’d encourage everyone to give it a go!
