#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Spending my #HyggeHour with Trixie & the gang for #BobWhiteBuddies & enjoying this cocoa custard Easter Bunny roll as my snack with tea. I‘m excited about this one (book 12) in the series because I remember the first 2 lines of the fortune Trixie gets when the Bob-Whites go to NYC.

Not looking forward to it being Monday tomorrow although this is a no-travel week for me, so hopefully a bit calmer.

A Killing Cold: A Novel | Kate Alice Marshall

This was a solid domestic mystery/thriller. Most of it was pretty easy to figure out but there were still some surprises to be had. Theo was a great main character, being somewhat of an unreliable narrator but also warm and funny. I really wanted her to figure out her past! Will definitely read more by this author! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Finally starting to pick up Nancy Drew books again. Finished this one earlier this week. This one was okay. Lots of golf and of course Nancy is amazing at golf, even with an injured hand. This one wasn‘t too ridiculous, so it was enjoyable. Though she just happened to find the treasure chest a guy was looking for, for years.

Librarybelle This one was better than some of the most recent ones! 12h

#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

Finished last week for #ThematicCozies April #Sports theme, one of my two picks. I don‘t know that this one is really that sports related. The MC goes to Mackinac Island to help her boss‘s father with his bike shop when he breaks his leg & starts trying to solve a murder when he is accused. There‘s talk of a bike race but most renters are tourists getting around the no-car island. Still it was cute-maybe a little over ⬇️

DebinHawaii …top at times with just how accident prone the MC was, but I overall enjoyed the audiobook (free on Audible) & would listen to the next book in the series. (This is book 1). 12h
TheSpineView Well done!🤩🩷📚 12h
julieclair I‘d read it just for the Mackinac Island setting. I‘ve always wanted to go there! 10h

This was a very okay book. The story wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. After reading, I don't think there is anything memorable about this book. It was a very cookie cutter mystery. My hunch was correct, I just don't think there was anything in this book that wowed me. 2.5/5

Low Pressure | Sandra Brown
Pickpick

Salacious and suspenseful, this has all the trappings of a Sandra brown plot. A picture perfect family who seems to have it all is upended a Memorial Day weekend when big sister Susan is murdered. Did the wrong victim get sentenced? Eighteen years later, her sister Bellamy writes a novel that opens the case wide again and as she befriends dent, former suspect and down-trodden pilot, there are people who want the case to stay closed.

Hi, Littens! I miss you! My store has been open since January and it‘s going great but I want to get back on Litsy much more. I have a question for the #cozymystery lovers: what are the top series that I should carry (some of them, not the entire series) at the bookstore? I read lots of mystery/thrillers but am not as familiar with cozies! Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Jess I‘m so excited your are open! I look forward to stopping by in the coming weeks. 15h
Jas16 Congratulations on your bookstore! Are we able to support you through bookshop.org? 15h
Ruthiella Congrats! I‘m not a cosy mystery reader myself, but I‘ll be interested in hearing what others think. Unless Richard Osman books are considered cosy? 🤔 I really like his Thursday Murder Club series as well as his newest 14h

BookwormAHN I'm not sure about a series but pretty much anything by Ellery Adams is good. 14h
Librarybelle Anything by Vicky Delany/Eva Gates is a winner! She writes several cozies (and a couple non-cozies). I also point people to Laurie Cass. I also love anything by Ellie Alexander. A good resource is the cozy mystery website: https://cozy-mystery.com/blog/most-popular-and-recommended-cozy-mystery-series/ . This links to a recommended list that is fairly recent. Oh, and M.C. Beaton—definitely recommend her books! 12h
Bookwormjillk Congratulations! Where is your store again? My daughter‘s field hockey schedule has been bringing me to York and Lancaster this year. For cozies I like Vivien Chien‘s series or maybe there‘s a series that takes place near you? 12h
BookmarkTavern I‘ve been enjoying the Bakeshop series by Ellie Alexander, the Record Shop series by Olivia Blacke, and the Stellar Investigations Detective Agency by Manjiri Prabhu. (edited) 9h

This book is so cute! I‘m so glad I picked it up at the library the other day. Koishi and her Dad run a hard to find restaurant and detective agency. You describe a dish associated with a memory that you want to taste again and they will make it for you, make it taste the same as it did in that memory.

Highly, highly recommend if you need something cozy to read.

I'm a fan of Mary Kubica's writing style—she dives deep into each character‘s psyche and weaves their stories with precision. Her plots twist unexpectedly, always keeping you on edge. In this one, two close couples quietly envy each other‘s marriages. But when one husband vanishes, secrets begin to unravel, and the illusion of perfection shatters in a chilling game of truth ,deception, and unwanted revelation. 😱😱
