<\/a>\"\"Halloween is less than a week away, which means we will soon be saying goodbye to October. Having said that, I can think of no better time for me to ask you all to tell us about your favorite Cozy Mystery books that you read this October. (Isn’t this Agatha Christie’s Hallowe’en Party<\/em><\/a> graphic neat?)<\/p>\n

Please tell us if you read an extremely good<\/strong> Cozy Mystery book during October, and tell us what made that Cozy Mystery stand out as being so good<\/strong>. Please only tell us about the Cozies that were much better than the rest<\/strong> of the other Cozy Mystery books you read during October.<\/p>\n

[As usual, I ask that you don’t tell us about the mystery books you read that you didn’t like.]<\/p>\n
