Another VERY humorous,cozy mystery author you might want to consider adding to your list is Maddy Hunter. Her series, starting with "Alpine For You", is about a young woman who becomes a tour escort for the senior citizens in her Iowa community. Thus far I have only read 2 of them and they were both delightful.
Hi Gayle, I have a Maddy Hunter page on the Cozy Mystery site… I agree, her cozy books are very humorous!
As one of the library volunteers who picks out & delivers books for our "homebound" patrons I have found your web site extremely helpful. Most of our people prefer the light hearted, cozy reads. Thanks
Gayle,
What a great job you have! How neat that your library delivers books to your homebound patrons.
Anyone know when the next "Cat Who.." is due to be released? Any rumours I've missed? Genny
Genny, You're in luck! The Cat Who Smelled Smoke is due out April 1 of this year.
I've read all of them and I loved them all. A very cute series.
I think that cozy mysteries are the best books with which you can spend your time… and it sounds like we all agree with that sentiment!
