Top Ten Tuesday; Cosy Mystery Books I Enjoyed but Rarely Talk About

It's Tuesday, which means it's time for another Top Ten Tuesday post, courtesy of That Artsy Reader Girl. The theme of the week was books I enjoyed, but rarely talk about. I decided to focus on cosy mysteries, as even though I often post reviews of them, I rarely talk about them otherwise.

My picks are;

Strangled Eggs And Ham by Maddie Day

Death by Dumpling by Vivien Chien

Dead On The Vine by Elle Brooke White

Peach Clobbered by Anna Gerard

Murder, She Knit by Peggy Ehrhart

Verse and Vengeance by Amanda Flower

Cherry Scones & Broken Bones by Darci Hannah

Murder With Collard Greens And Hot Sauce by A. L. Herbert

The Quiche and the Dead by Kirsten Weiss

The Uninvited Corpse by Debra Sennefelder

      That's part of the fun with cosy mysteries. A lot of them have quirky titles, perhaps with a spin on famous titles written by other authors. Once I read a cosy mystery called An Ale of Two Cities. :-)

    Seriously, all of these books look super fun. I've dabbled a little bit in cozy mysteries and really need to read more of them. :)

    My TTT.

      Cosy mysteries are so much fun. I feel like I've fallen down a rabbit hole as I've read so many the last year, but they're quite entertaining. :-)

Announcing the 2022 Diversity Reading Challenge

Image
As we're writing 2022 in two months, I figured out it was time to announce the 2022 Diversity Challenge. I've hosted it in 2019 and 2021, and decided to host it next year too. I’m not going to make any categories or levels for this challenge, as I want it to be a bit flexible. Read as many books as you feel like reading and yes, it can be children’s books, graphic novels, e-books, non-fiction, audio books, poetry and you-name-it. As it is a diversity reading challenge, it would be mean to exclude some types of reading materials, right? Now, what is diversity you might ask? What I mean by diversity is, but not limited to; People of colour/non-caucasian characters/authors Native Americans and other indigenous people LGBTQIA+ Authors/characters defining themselves as trans, intersex, genderfluid or similar Refugees Religious minorities Mental illnesses/disorders Neurodiversity (like ADD, Aspergers and autism) Feminist themes/issues Physical/mental disabilities Characters/authors w...
