Cozy Mystery
One Poison Pie by Lynn Cahoon
This is the first book in the Kitchen Witch series and the first from this author that I have read. I will say that adored this book so much. I am a huge sucker for paranormal and then add in the cozy mystery aspect and I am there. All of the characters were so much…
Night Train to Paris by Fliss Chester
This is the second book in the Fen Churche Mystery series and although I haven’t read the first I wasn’t lost in this one. I will say that I am planning to go back and read the first because I enjoyed this one so much. Fenella (Fen) has left Morey-Fontaine in Burgandy and is on…
Murder in the Piazza by Jen Collins Moore
I really loved that Maggie was older than most heroines in books. At 55 she is a little closer to my own age which made understanding her a little better. She was downsized from her job so she accompanied her husband to live in Rome for two years. Now, unhappy with playing bridge and cocktail…

Little Bookshop of Murder by Maggie Blackburn
I love when a book has a book theme, especially a cozy mystery that does. I really liked Summer although she does have some moments where I felt she acted more like a teen who is angry with her mother. Her mother has died and Summer is ready to settle the estate but things aren’t…
