The fall/winter months are times of year best spent curled up with a blanket and a nice book. Even better, a cozy mystery! Cozies are certainly one of my favorite types of books that, unfortunately, I don’t have the opportunity to read as much a I’d like. So, what better reason to read about them than a week-long celebration of cozy mysteries?
To start off with, what is a cozy mystery? According to Wikipedia: Cozy mysteries, also referred to simply as “cozies”, are a subgenre of crime fiction in which sex and violence are downplayed or treated humorously, and the crime and detection take place in a small, socially intimate community.
The best thing about cozies? There is a series for everyone, whether you are a fan of knitting, sewing, tea, coffee, haunted houses. There’s a series for you!
Cozy Mystery Week is scheduled for December 1-6. Each day I will focus on a favorite series of mine, both new and old. A fan of cozies yourself? Link up your cozy mystery posts below. The best part? They can be from any time period, not only Cozy Mystery week.
So, get your comfortable reading spot, a nice warm blanket, a cozy mystery or two, and join me for Cozy Mystery Week!
