(Thank you, Cora!)<\/p>\n<p>I just finished <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/0425219801\/?tag=httpwwwmarkes-20\">Murder in Miniature<\/a> (the first in Grace&#8217;s\u00a0Miniature Mystery Series) and I am currently reading <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/0373264674\/?tag=httpwwwmarkes-20\">The Hydrogen Murder<\/a> (the first in her Periodic Table Mystery Series), which gives me nine more cozies to look forward to reading. I love discovering new authors who I can play &#8220;catch-up&#8221; with, since that leaves me with a bounty of books to enjoy before having to wait (+\/-) a year\u00a0for her next mystery.<\/p>\n<p>Camille Minichino writes the way I think&#8230; She has a logical sequence to her story lines. Just when I find myself wondering about something, so do her main characters! I love that! She doesn&#8217;t rely on what I call the &#8220;idiot plot&#8221; which has the main character finding out a bit of information and keeping it from the reader until the very last page of the book. (I hate that!) I love the fact that Minichino lets us play along with her main characters as they sleuth through the given mysteries.<\/p>\n<p>I love the small town\u00a0feeling\u00a0in both of\u00a0her\u00a0cozy mystery series. (Of course, only having read the first in her Grace series and not being finished with the first in her Minichino series, I can&#8217;t vouch for the following books&#8217; locations.) Everyone knows everyone, they have histories that have been shared at one point in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>I love all of her characters so far.\u00a0Love the fact that the author hasn&#8217;t had to &#8220;get my attention&#8221; with unnecessary swearing&#8230; Love the fact that\u00a0the heroines\/sleuths in both series know what they want out of\u00a0life, and even though they are retired,they have very full lives, which don&#8217;t consist of only sleuthing.<\/p>\n<p>As I said\u00a0at the beginning of this entry&#8230; I am always excited about finding a new Cozy author to follow. I&#8217;m glad my friend told me about her, and I&#8217;m glad Minichino \/ Grace is writing such good Cozies!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right&#8230; Camille Minichino (aka Margaret Grace) is my latest Cozy find&#8230; My friend (from my last blog entry) did not steer me wrong!
