Every once in a while I simply have to talk about the Cozy Mystery books I am reading\/listening to AND find out what books you all are reading. Call me nosy…<\/p>\n
I am listening to one of Patricia Wentworth’s Miss Maud Silvers Cozy Mystery Series<\/strong> and, let me tell you, there is no question that this is a Cozy Mystery! No graphic language, violence, or “adult” situations. The sleuth, Miss Silvers, is an older, retired school teacher\/governess who has taken up private investigating in her later years. Her services are found by word of mouth. People who have used her to solve a mystery in their own lives tell\u00a0people who sound like they need a competent investigator. In turn, those people tell more people, etc. Yes, she is that good!<\/p>\n Patricia Wentworth<\/a> is an author who I found out about after several Cozy Mystery site readers recommended her to be included on the site. She definitely qualifies as Cozy… and she even knits!<\/p>\n The “real book” (as the other is the audiobook in my car) is the first in the Orchard Mystery Series<\/strong> by Sheila Connolly<\/a> (aka Sarah Atwell). I just passed the fiftieth page, so, as some of you know about my “decide by page 50 rule” >>> I must be enjoying her One Bad Apple<\/em>. I have recently been reading comments and\/or letters about the Orchard Mystery Series, so decided it was time to try it. So far, so good.<\/p>\n
