One of my favorite types of books to read are cozy mysteries (or cozies). Although I've enjoyed almost every cozy I've read, I tend to gravitate towards the foodcentric ones. Weird, huh? I credit Diane Mott Davidson and her
Goldy Bear Culinary Mystery series for introducing me to the genre. A few more of my favorite culinary cozy series are the
Hannah Swensen series by Joanne Fluke, the
Coffeehouse Mysteries by Cleo Coyle, the
Wine Country Mysteries by Ellen Crosby, the
Savannah Reid Mysteries by G.A. McKevett, and the
Gourmet Girl Mysteries by Jessica Conant-Park and Susan Conant. I also enjoy the
Josie Prescott Antiques Mysteries by Jane Cleland, but they are't culinary centered.
Obviously I love the foodie-type ones. I mean, have you read the title of my site? Anything that combines two of my favorite things (food and books) is a-ok in my book...did you catch my post about joining the
Foodies Read Challenge this year? Well, as a part of that, I'm hoping to introduce you to even more reads for you or the foodie in your life over the course of 2016.
