What Cozy Did You Just Finish Reading??? (Archive) Showing 2,401-2,450 of 6,243

[Susie]

Just finished . I enjoyed this one more than the first book.

[❂ Murder by Death]

I finished up last night. This is a series I started when it first came out, really liked it, then somehow it dropped off my radar until one of you kind souls reminded me about it. :) There are only the last two I hadn't read but I finally tracked them down and I'm enjoying having them. :)

[Ellen]

Just read M.C. Beaton today. I think I'm seriously addicted to Hamish Macbeth.

[Ellen]

Uh-oh. I see a new addiction coming on :O

Have you read it? If so, what do you think?
(And no, I didn't know)

[Liz]

Between reading & (an EXCELLENT book, by the way) I managed to slip in a cozy - which I enjoyed. I'm about halfway thru now.

[Susie]

Just finished .

Finished Celebrity Sudoku by Kaye Morgan over the weekend, an okay read. Looks like the love triangle may finally be resolved. Also wondering, by way this one ended, if there will be more to come or if this is the last in this series.

[Sandra]

Just finished . It was pretty good. I am enjoying Ngaio Marsh's books.

I've read a few of Ngaio Marsh's books, not the one you've read, but I've always enjoyed her. She's up there with Margery Allingham and Dame Agatha.

[Melodie]

Finished yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. One of my favorites in the series! Currently reading and . The Nora Roberts book is not my usual kind of read, but I'm actually liking it!

[Mollie]

I just finished "Pushing Up Daisies" by Rosemary Harris. I LOVED it.

[alicia]

Just about finished with and while it okay I can tell it's not going to be a favorite series. I just have to much of an issue with some of the conversations the people in the book have with each other.

[❂ Murder by Death]

Just finished up Aunt Dimity and the Family Tree.
I love this series and have from the first book. These are cozy mysteries, but without any murder. Always a delight to read. :)

I just started [bookcover:One Was a Soldier|6388272] also. I just love this series and author.

[Tammy]

Oops, party foul, posted in the wrong thread. Sorry everyone! I got so excited about Melodie reading the same book that I just hit reply.

I just finished , which I liked (slowly worked through that series again). I'm slow on the monthly challenges, but I get there!

[Susie]

I only listened to this book because it was available on my library's audio site... . It was at least entertaining to listen to while I work out at the gym ;)

[❂ Murder by Death]

Just finished last night. I enjoyed this book quite a bit. The characters, the sense of place, and the mystery sucked me in and the authors talented writing had me in Zinnia Mississippi for the duration. I'm not sure how I feel about the revolving door of men that seem to be in Sarah Booth's future as I really enjoy watching the romantic part of the story build up over time in a series, but I'm willing to read a few more to find out.

[Sandra J]

I finished . I'm not a huge fan of first person POV, but this was okay although I found the narrator kind of annoying. The setting was interesting, and the plot was okay. I may try another in the series since my library has several of them.

[Paula]

I finished reading Live Free or Die. It's a good book, if you want a break from the intense, complicated reads.

[[deleted user]]

I just finished and enjoyed it just as much as the first in the series featuring small-town newspaper owner Emma Lord, who is an engaging narrator. Brisk plot, lively characters, puzzling crime, and tangled romantic subplot keep things moving along nicely.

[Sandra J]

I really enjoyed
and . But I really enjoyed the audio versions of both books. Flavia came to life-especially her glee when discussing chemistry and poison.

[Sandra]

Just finished . I picked it up cheap at the library. I read it and now it's listed on my PBS and BookMooch sites to swap. I do that with quite a few cozies. I think I'm going to read next.

I have this coming up very soon in my TBR so I'm glad to hear good things about it.

[❂ Murder by Death]

Just finished last night. I like the way the author tied real events into the plot for this story and I like that Daisy sees the difference between justice and law. :) I hope Ms. Dunn has many more Daisy Dalrymple mysteries up her sleeve.

[Maryalice]

I just finished reading the ARC of Julie Hyzy new book. It's great!! It's the second in the Manor House Mysteries. It's called "Grace Interrupted". I love the way Ms. Hyzy describes the Manor and the grounds. She builds the suspense. Really a great read!!

[Susan]

Just finished The Fashion Police: The fashion business just got deadly... (Comedy Mystery) by Sibel Hodge who is a Goodreads author. Lots of sub-plots in this book, but everything ties up nicely in the end. Comparisons have been drawn between Amber Fox and Stephanie Plum, but Amber is way more competent (although there is that scene where she gets green paint in her hair. . .).

[Melodie]

Finished and really enjoyed it!

[Sherry]

Just read today, and loved it. When I started it, I didn't think I was going to like it. Was I ever wrong! Read it straight through, and can hardly wait to read the next in the series, .

[Susie]

Just finished . Another good China Bayles book. I'm so glad to finally be caught up with this series ;)

I held out on these for awhile, too, and really loved them!

i just finished by Paige Shelton..........i enjoyed it!!!! can't wait for her next book in the series, Crops & Robbers!!!!!

[Melodie]

Finished . It was a waste of time!

I just finished by Monica Ferris. I think I'm getting close to being caught up in this series.

[Nora-adrienne]

I read Sinister Sprinkles and Fruit of all Evil this week. I gave them both 4 stars and will post a review of them on my blog site sometime this afternoon.

[Shannon]

and I loved it. I was satisfied with the ending of the series.

[Sandra]

and I didn't care for it. This was my first Mary Daheim book, and could be my last. I did pick up at the library, so I may try it. I sure hope it's a better book!

[❂ Murder by Death]

Just finished . Very average book. The author has talent but his characters interact in a very clumsy way and his female protagonist acts as though she has been written by a man. The idea for the plot was a good one and the author draws the scene very well, but otherwise, not great.

[Ellen]

Dru wrote: "I just finished by Sara Rosett and it was a great read."

I very much want to read some Sara Rosett but I'm having a hard time finding her. Hopefully soon.

[Sandra]

Went ahead and read and really didn't like it either. No more Mary Daheim for me!

[Ariel]

I just finished Blast From the Past. I enjoyed it and will read the next in the series.

[Melodie]

Need to pick a cozy from The Pile. I just finished and REALLY didn't like it. I liked the first one in this series, but this one just reminded me why I usually steer far away from Nora Roberts! The books were a gift, so I figured I'd give them a shot. I have the other 2 in the series, but won't hurry to read them. Don't know how I can dislike her usual stuff so much, but then like the "In Death" books!

[Ellen]

I just finished by Laura Childs which I liked quite a bit. I enjoyed the descriptions of the tea (even though I am myself a coffee drinker) & the shop & the chief protagonist. She wasn't special but I found her very likable & easy to be with. I look forward to reading more in this series. I'd like to try out the recipes too, they looked delicious.
I was disappointed in . It gave me my "Y" for the A-Z challenge & I loved the tv show. This was the first Murder She Wrote that I read & I found myself wishing I could just flip it to TV. Jessica's voice was fine & the plot was interesting enough but the Las Vegas locale left me bored-the descriptions were not interesting & most of the characters were disappointing as well. I'm hoping it's just this book. Or that I wasn't in the right mood. It happens. I try not to judge a book in a series too much by just one of the books since the writing is often uneven. I've read in posts here people who loved this series, so maybe the next one!

You're not alone, Ellie! I remember watching some of the episodes when it was on TV, but just could not get into the two books I read last November. I know many here love this series, but I had difficulty getting into the author's voice, and the plots seemed to drag.

[❂ Murder by Death]

Just finished and really enjoyed it! The characters were well written, the scenery gorgeous and the story very clean and enjoyable.

Thanks Heather-I thought I'd be pounced on for admitting that!:{

The Jessica Fletcher books were a featured author last fall (November?). You'll find comments in that discussion thread which is probably archived. I loved the series, but had a hard time getting into the book. I ended up thinking it was ok. Sometimes it felt like I was reading a movie script.

[Nell]

I just finished April Fool Dead by Carolyn Hart. It was another good read. I narrowed down the suspects to two just before Annie did, then picked the wrong one. Oh well, I got the motive right.
As usual, I finished this Death on Demand book with more mysteries added to my TBR.
