I recently had the pleasure of watching the tv show Only Murders in the Building (shout out to Rosa, Claire, and Allie for recommending it!) and I was delightfully charmed from start to finish. I quickly fell into this cozy mystery set in New York City following the unexpected trio of Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez as they try to solve a murder that took place in their fancy apartment building while starting a true crime podcast along the way. I was pulled in by the eclectic cast of characters, funny moments, and the twists and turns as the plot thickened.

As someone who tends to veer away from things with murder in the title, this show reminded me how fun a mystery can be and that there is in fact an entire genre of cozy mysteries out there to explore. So, if you too have just finished binging this show and are searching for some fun and not-too-scary cozy mysteries to read, check out the list below! And if you haven't watched the show yet, please go and remedy that right away. Happy sleuthing!

Crack open your sunscreen and get out your beach bags people because summer has officially begun! To help set the tone for sunset evenings, cool beverages, and sticky watermelon fingers I’ve got a whole list of books to get you in that summer sunshine mood. I’ve got lots of Fiction and Romance with some Mystery & Suspense as well as a few non-fiction books towards the end. I hope you soak up every drop of the summertime vibes emanating from these books and that they help you jump into your summer reading plans with a splash.

Stay tuned for next week's blog post all about Kids & YA summer books!

I don't know about you, but I could really use a laugh or two...or a million... right now. But with such serious and important topics occupying our thoughts and newsfeeds, it can be difficult to dredge up any humor on our own.
