Do you love mysteries? What are your *favorite* Cozy Mystery themes? If you've never read cozy mysteries, tell me some of your interests, and I'll try to recommend a series just for you! 😊
These are great recs. I love the different themes! Vera Wong is definitely a favorite of mine and I’d like to read The Maid at some point. Can’t wait for Part 2.
@@bookswithcheryl Hi, Cheryl! Glad you enjoyed the video! 😊 I had fun choosing the books to include, but I quickly realized that I probably could make a hundred videos like this one highlighting the various themes and series that make up the cozy book genre! 😂 Part 2 (Cozy Books in Many Genres) & Part 3 (Cozy NonFiction Books) are coming soon. 📚📚📚 Looks like I need to check out your cozy new channel, too! ❤️
They all sound like cozy books to enjoy on a cold night. Mother of Cozy Mysteries! I like that. I want to say that I've heard of The River In The Sky? Now you have me wanting to read a Cozy mystery! Thank you -James
Hi Kim, I just finished a self published cozy, Murder she fried by Carol Novis, tension on a pension series. I have to be really interested in the characters and theme when I read a cozy. I like what she said about York city having small town vibes. It sure did when I lived there. I knew people who never left Brooklyn to go to Manhattan. They acted like it was another state.😊. Thank you for all the book suggestions in the genre. Aloha friend.
@@MarilynMayaMendoza I *love* the name of that series - Tension on a Pension! Too funny! 😂 Yes, that's what I've heard about NYC from friends who live there, and the Cleo Coyle series definitely has that feel. And when it comes to the cozy mysteries I read, I'm with you - they really need to have interesting characters and themes!
Oh what fun! I love a cozy mystery and am having fun with them. Am challenging myself to collect loads of series and want to try and get them all from charity shop finds. Yes, there has been an explosion of this genre and some just seem like fluff if you know what i mean. I need to read Elizabeth Peters, that book sounds fab! What an awesome list and eagerly awaiting more!
@@Bookishtravels1 Hi, Julie! Yes, there are just so many cozy mystery series - definitely something for everyone. Peters' Amelia Peabody series is incredibly fun and interesting! I highly recommend it. 😊
@@bookswithamymarie Thanks, Amy! Yes, Jeffrey Cohen is a very funny writer. He has several series under different pen names - all different vibes, but all good fun. ☺️
I remember reading those Elizabeth Peters (Amelia Peabody) books many, many years ago! Would be fun to reread them. Unfortunately, they are long gone. Fun listening to your book chat. 💕
Hi, Angela! 🙋♀️ The Amelia Peabody books are still so popular, so I'm sure you can borrow them from the library! I've actually picked up a few duplicate sets of them from used bookstores over the years to give to some of my kids. They enjoy them, too! 😊
I stumbled on the cozy series called "Christmas River Cozy Series" by Meg Muldoon. It's very similar to "Meet the Baker" in that it's in a small town and the main female character is a baker with a pie shop!! I recently read #10 in the series and loved it, so I'm going to catch up on it. I think there are 14 books in total. I will look into the one you mentioned by Ellie Alexander!
@@coffee_cookies_books Hi, Judy! 🙋♀️ There are so many cozy mystery series! I hadn't heard of this one by Meg Muldoon, but as it's set in a year-round Christmas town, *and* it's on KU, I definitely want to check it out. You never know what you'll find until you try! Thanks for sharing! 😊
@@WildHeartsandWildflowers It is set in a town with the name "Christmas" but not all of the stories occur in that timeframe. I read some of the other book synopsis' and realized that, which was a smart thing for the author to do :)
@@coffee_cookies_books Interesting! Thanks for sharing! Yes, I read a description somewhere of the series' town (Christmas River) which made it sound like the town's shops and main tourism comes from its Christmas theme, but it makes sense that the different books will take place at various times of the year and, therefore, not focus on the Christmas holiday. I noticed #11 is Halloween-themed with a horror writer in residence. Sounds like one you might really enjoy!
@@WildHeartsandWildflowers I would definitely love that. I just picked up book 1 and am planning to work my way through them but at least #10 is done LOL
Hey Kim! This was such an awesome video! I love the Amelia Peabody! They had the Amelia narrator come up malice to celebrate Elizabeth Peters. She did a resting and it was awesome!! I love your suggestions!! I love that you referred to Joanne fluke as mother of cozy mysteries! The coffeehouse is do fun! Love the mother in law! Yeah!!! The bakeshop series!! It was so wonderful meeting you! Do you read the library lovers by Jenn Mckinlay? She did a crossover and had Lindsay the librarian mc head to a rare book conference to meet Brooklyn. So neat!! I can’t wait for part two!! Sweet kitty! 💜🩷📚☕️🌼🌈🦋
@@theBeachbumbookworm Hi, Tiffany! 🙋♀️ Wow, that Malice event with the Amelia Peabody narrator sounds like it was amazing! Yes, after Elizabeth Peters, dear Joanne was how I got my start in cozies. 😊 I *do* read Jenn McKinlay's Library Lover's mysteries, but I'm a few books behind with it (as well as with the Coffeehouse books). Which book does the crossover take place? If it was early on, I've forgotten it. 🤦♀️ These two series are ones I want to re-read from the beginning because they're so good. The problem is there are so many fun series, and new ones all the time - but then, you know exactly what I mean! 😂
@@MargaretPinard MC Beaton, a pen name for Marion Chesney, was a fantastic (& prolific!) cozy mystery writer! Both her Agatha Raisin series and her Hamish Macbeth series are very popular still today. Those books are set in the 90s, 2000s, and 2010s, so not historical, but the earlier ones do have a slightly older feel. Her unusual Agatha Raisin character is known for being either loved or hated. Personally, I loved her back when I read the series. 😁
