The Crime Fiction Alphabet has just two more letters to go and I was wondering whether there would be another crime fiction challenge I could join and today I found this one on Margot’s blog Joyfully Retired.
It’s the Cozy Mystery Challenge, which is run by Kris from Not Enough Books. She describes a cozy mystery as
a mystery that doesn’t normally have any rough language, sex scenes, or gruesome details about the killing, and the main character is normally an amateur detective.
It sounds good to me. The challenge is to read at least least 6 cozy mysteries between April 1st, 2010 and September 30, 2010. I think I can manage that.

I am glad you are joining this one also. I participated last year, and I think cozy mysteries are nice for a change.

I don’t think that Maisie Dobbs’ mystery qualifies as “cozy mysteries” but there is a new one out “The Mapping of Love and Death”. Can’t wait to get into it in a cozy place in the house and then can’t wait to see what to decide to put on your list for this challenge.
