Cozy Mysteries discussion

Hey everyone,

I've noticed that a couple older game threads have become a bit sluggish -- and no wonder with almost 250 pages of posts! -- so I am opening up a new thread.


The Rules:

** This is a little online game for those that are bored or want to have a little fun. What we're going to do is take turns running down the alphabet using book titles. Besides having fun, it exposes folks to new books or authors.

** All mysteries please, cozy if you can. Certain letters like Q, X, and Z can be hard to come up with -- in which case, try to find a title that contains the required letter. For example, of the letter "Z" you might post a title that contains the word "buzz."

** A, An and The do not count

** If you know how, please use the "add book/author " feature to link to the book you list in case anyone wants to look it up. Please refrain from linking to covers in this particular thread -- save those for the "Scavenger Hunt" game. ,-)

** After you take a turn, please wait for at least one other person to take a turn before having another go. Once we get to Z and the end of the alphabet, next person starts over with A. And if you've read the book you list, feel free to leave your thoughts about the book.


Here are the last four posts from Round 2 -- first poster picks up where we left off!:
