Just finished and really like both of these series.

[Mary (Biblophile)]

Just finished an older cozy . I like this series.

Coca-Cola cake is wonderful! My grandmother used to make it and I use her recipe! (I'm a Coke-a-holic!)

me too! In fact my husband was out of town last weekend so i had my very own Murder, She Wrote marathon!

As an aside, I met Donald Bain at a writer's conference a year or so ago and I said "My father (who was a HUGE MSW fan!) always talked about Jessica Fletcher as if she were real." and Donald replied, "So do I!" He and his wife (co-writer) are charming people. How was the latest book? I haven't snagged it yet...

Good to know - I just got that yesterday!

[Susie]

Just finished . Always fun to read this series :)

I don't know if it counts as a cozy or not, but I finished late last night (early this morning? LOL). Some of the violence/killing seemed a little ... too much? ... for a standard cozy, if that makes any sense. I don't want to say too much and give anything away to those who've not yet read the book. (view spoiler)[I mean, seriously? Death by crucifixion? In a COZY?? That just seems a little over the top, imo! (hide spoiler)]

that said, I really liked the book and have already added the net in the series to my to-read list.

[Melodie]

Finished . Not bad, but not good either. Basically just okay. Won't read more in the series.

[Mary (Biblophile)]

I just finished and found myself chuckling along the way.

I just got this book a couple of weeks ago and have been thinking about reading it, hmm.... may have to move it up the ever growing tbr pile.

Good to see someone enjoying this book. I read it last year and was generous when I gave it 2 stars. It has some really good sounding recipes, but the story didn't do a thing for me. Thought about trying the 2nd one to see if I liked it any better, but haven't so far.

I like the Death on Demand series too.

[Danielle]

I just finished Peppermint Twisted . Really enjoyed it... I love this series!

[Maria]

I just finished reading Heaven Preserve Us by Cricket McRae. It was a great read!

[Nathania]

Just finished Death by Bikini by Linda Gerber. The story is okay but I have problems with the plot and the actions of the heroine =_=||

[Zoe]

I finished and I enjoyed it.

[Bandmama (aka Lucy) - Claiming Mitch as mine]

Two down, one to go in the Magical Dressmaker Series by Melissa Bourbon Ramirez. I just finished and liked it very much. Again, I didn't guess who done it lol. I've started the third and am reading it now.

[Linda]

Let It Sew by Elizabeth Lynn Casey. Although I read it after the Christmas season was over, I still enjoyed it tremendously. This is a great series.

[Nell]

Just finished The Walled Flower by Lorraine Bartlett. While the mystery was good, the main character's go it alone attitude annoyed me. She withheld evidence from the police and ended up endangering her life and several others.

[Mary (Biblophile)]

Just finished which I found mediocre at best.

I quit after one of these. Hated all the bullet points and her sister's "text speak".

[Marisa, Cozy Mysteries Assistant Moderator]

I've finished Pies and Prejudice and I've liked it a lot. I'm looking forward the next one.

[Susie]

Just finished by Bailey Cates. It took me awhile to get into it, but it had a pretty good ending.

I made it as far as the second chapter of book 3 and then threw it across the room. Her mother is a witch with a capital B.

[Heather L , Cozy Mysteries Moderator]

Finished If Walls Could Talk -- really liked this one. Now to get my hands on the next book in the series!

[Zoe]

I just finished . Another great installment in this interesting series.

[Sharon]

Not quite sure if this series could be considered a 'cozy' as it's a bit 'tougher' in some ways than most cozies. Perhaps police procedural with cozy tendencies? At any rate, I've enjoyed the main character very much and the small town police department is very well done. Three books in the series, starting with and all three are excellent.

[Mary (Biblophile)]

I just finished which is the third in the series. I liked it as I do genealogy and the main character is a whimpy, shy genealogist who always ends up in deep do-do.

I have the first of these on my TBR list as my I book for read the season, so I'm glad to hear you liked them.

[Lesley]

Just finished by Lois Winston. I gave it 4 stars!

[❂ Murder by Death]

I finished The Intrigue at Highbury: Or, Emma's Match last night. I haven't yet read Emma so I had a bit of trouble in the beginning keeping all the characters straight, but it was a fun read!

[Joanne]

I just finished reading . There was a lot going on in this book which made for a nice, entertaining read!

[Mary (Biblophile)]

Just finished and enjoyed it. I like the old folks doing the detecting. Also, I don't much care for the author's other series, but like this one.

[Chuck]

Finished last night Arsenic and Old Cake

[Melissa]

Just finished .

[Nargiz]

I've just finished In love with entire series, just too sad to finish it(

[Bandmama (aka Lucy) - Claiming Mitch as mine]

I finished . I think this is my favorite series so far. LOVE it!

[Sue]

I finished From Mangia to Murder this morning.

I really enjoyed the Ghost Duster series

[❂ Murder by Death]

I've read the first two books in the Deadwood Series. Great reads! Looking forward to the third book!

NB: these skirt the line between cozy and soft-boiled: lots o' language (the second book includes two usages of that penultimate of female insults) and not explicit sex, but there are sex scenes. Also, the final scene of the first book is NOT cozy at all. Not graphic but - well, ick!

[[deleted user]]

I just finished . I thought it was good.

[Melodie]

Finished . Really liked it!

[Kaye]

Just finished . Gave it 2 stars solely because it was just too incredible even for a cozy. Too bad because I liked the characters.

I read these books a while back and was disappointed there were not more, but I saw today where there are two more coming out. One on Feb. 19th and another on May 21st, but they are only as e-books, haven't seen anything about print books.

[Mary (Biblophile)]

Just finished . I like this series.

I really like this series, too. I pre-ordered the one that comes out on the 19th for my Fire. I REALLY hate spending that much on electronic books when I have nothing tangible to show for my money and can't really do anything with the "book" once I've read it. Hope it's as good as the print books were.

[Laura]

I just finished . The ending got me all sniffly, in a nice way :)
