I have loved the books in the Key West Food Critic series. The characters are delightful ... from Haley to her husband and family to her houseboat neighbor, Miss Gloria. And the opportunity to celebrate Miss Gloria’s 85th birthday is definitely going to bring up the chance for a murder mystery. The mystery “explodes” at the beginning and will have you invested in the story and sleuthing with Hayley and her mother-in-law and stepmother to reveal the person guilty of murder. Mi

The Sophie Kimball series by J. C. Eaton is one of my favorites. The characters are delightful and you will find yourself chuckling or, like Sophie (“Phee”), rolling your eyes at the situations her mother, Harriet, and Harriet’s book club ladies find themselves in. The murder mystery will have you “puzzled” about who is guilty. There are a lot of twists and turns, misguided hints, and crazy antics that keep you invested in the story.

When I open a Vicki Delany book, I know I will be treated to a delightful cozy mystery. The characters in the Year-Round Christmas series feel like your neighbors.

I have really enjoyed the books in A Secret Bookcase series by Ellie Alexander. I have loved getting to know Annie, Hal, Fletcher, Liam, and the rest of the gang. Of course, there is a murder and Annie is pulled into the middle of the investigation. Lots of twists and turns and discovering people are not who they present themselves to be. I was clueless on who was guilty of murder until it was revealed. I also was glad to see that Annie might be one step closer to discovering

I have loved the books in the Killer Chocolate series by Christina Romeril. Having the opportunity to spend time with Alex and Hanna is time well spent. A wonderful cozy mystery that will keep you invested in the story and with well-developed characters. The Christmas holiday theme is a bonus! With a lot of twists and turns and plenty of suspects, you will be sitting on the edge of your seat. I really enjoy watching how Alex and Tom’s and Hanna and Duncan’s relationships are
