I am reading "A Catered Birthday Party" by Isis Crawford.

This is a mystery and I love this book. I can't hardly put it down. I got this book from the Library.

This series is definitely cozy, so I'd put it under the "what cozy are you reading" thread!

Just starting Heist Society .

In a Nalini Singh's rush, so after Shards of Hope I'm rereading other of her books.

[Sherry]

I'm reading "The Paying Guests" by Sarah Waters. A long book - over 500 pages- but it's going by fast. A fascinating read.

I have been reading a variety of genres from cozy to suspense/thrillers to crime as well as YA and some children's books. Right now I have a couple of cozies on the go as well as and . Both good so far.

[Evelyn]

Just started "Seven Wonders" by Ben Mezrich. Looks like I'm in for a good mystery ride!

[Heather L , Cozy Mysteries Moderator]

Started The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan Saturday afternoon, and spent a good chunk of the weekend reading. 500 pages total, and only about 100 to go -- I finally had to put it down last night just as epic battles were to begin, or I wouldn't have gotten a lick of sleep. I feel like a zombie this morning as it is. :-S

Just finished An Ember in the Ashes - a great YA story about two teens set in a Rome-like Empire. 5 star read for me. The narration is excellent so I def recommend the audio.

This is MOST definitely a cozy, so I'd post it under "what cozy did you just finish" thread!

I've been dipping into some non-cozy crime reading lately. Enjoying books by Deborah Crombie, Ruth Rendell and Louise Penny so far.

Tried the first Tony Hill book by Val McDermid, but afraid I found it rather too gory/disturbing for my tastes.

Any recommendations for other authors to add to my non-cozy crime list? =)

As expected, finished this Monday evening. So sad to have another adventure series come to an end.

One of those books you either love or you hate. I would be in the latter category. I love his Kenzie & Gennaro series, tho. It starts with A Drink Before the War .

Just started reading The New York Trilogy by Paul Auster.

There's a great line in the first chapter describing the narrators love of mysteries:

It was a kind of hunger that took hold of him, a craving for a special food, and he would not stop until he'd eaten his fill.

[Kirsten]

I just finished reading The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas.
