I have this on my TBR. I hear its a good one.

[Lauri]

I really enjoyed Mum's the Word. It's the 1st in the flower shop mystery series & I will definitely go back to read more!

[Lauri]

Loved French Fried ! Filled with recipes & snippets of French history and travelogue, along with a variety of crazy characters and loveable canines!

[Lauri]

I'll be reading Killer in High Heels and Takedown Twenty this weekend. Going on a stay-cation at the Sheraton on Waikiki beach! I have no idea what I'll be wearing, but I've got my books all picked out! So excited!

[Britney]

Sounds like fun. Enjoy reading on the beach.

Sorry for my long absence! I've been consumed with a big challenge that's still going on. There are so many books, and so little time! Wish I could find a job that would pay me (well) to just read all day! That real work thing sure cuts into my quality reading time!

[Lauri]

I've been busy lately! Suddenly my loooong challenge is giving a lot of value to series books! What has more series than cozy mysteries? Lots of fun on many levels....
Some really great ones I've read were

[Britney]

It does seem like every cozy you read is part of a series. I like that I don't have to read the series back to back and I still remember the characters and storyline.

Updated up to Nov. 12! Guess I should've aimed higher. I definitely will for 2017! My most recent favorites were Ghouls Gone Wild and What Are You Wearing to Die?
