Hello!
I was doing some research for a blog post on "what is a cozy mystery?" and ran across this forum. I am an eclectic reader and do include cozys on my reading list. My blog is mostly travel related and I do a review now and then on books I've read and call it "Books for the Road." Basically, it's recommending books I've read for others to pack along in their suitcase or, more conveniently nowadays, download to their e-reader. Cozys are great reads for a vacation when you don't particularly want any heavy reading.

My own cozy, Murder Among The Orchids, is certainly not heavy reading. My sleuthing character is quite lovable and, while I was told by a publisher once that all cozys should include a cat, I gave her a plant to talk to instead.

Looking forward to learning more about what readers are enjoying in cozys.

Karen
