First of all, when you reach the bottom of this post, please add a comment telling us about your favourite Agatha Christie book. If you haven’t read any Agatha Christie or don’t like her books (heresy!) then tell us about your favourite cozy mystery book, TV show, or movie. That’s lots of options. Please share!

September 15 is Cozy Mystery Day!

Why, you may ask? Because it is Dame Agatha Christie’s birthday, and she is widely regarded as the creator of the cozy mystery. A cozy mystery is generally regarded as a mystery with an amateur sleuth like Miss Marple or Murder She Wrote’s Jessica Fletcher, who uses her wits to solve a mystery before the proper authorities. The genre consists of clean reads (no sex on the page, no blood and gore, no f-bombs) that can be enjoyed by all ages.

My Books

I have two series that are cozy mysteries, and additional series and books which, like Christie’s Poirot or Tommy and Tuppence mysteries, would not necessarily be classed as cozy mysteries in today’s market, but as traditional mysteries or whodunnits.
