Thrifty Thursday: Cozy mystery books


A couple of years ago, I was given a gift of a book in a new series called "The Bookmobile Cat" mysteries.  I had no idea what "cozy mysteries" were before this. Here is a definition:
    Cozy mysteries, also referred to simply as "cozies", are a subgenre of crime fiction in which sex and violence are downplayed or treated humorously, and the crime and detection take place in a small, socially intimate community.
    I've read a few books from other series and have enjoyed them. I recently found four books in a series about a coffee shop in a thrift store!

Fun. I haven't tried these, but there was a series of dog-related ones set in the fudge shops of Mackinac Island that I downloaded from the library a while back.

I haven't paid much attention to these, but my interest is piqued now. Sounds like a fun way to relax

There are a lot of cat mysteries out there- I wish I had time to read them all.
