Cozy Case Files, Volume 17 by Ellie Alexander, Clare Broyles, Rhys Bowen
4.0
Cozy Case Files #17 is a collection of nine cozy mystery excerpts. Each excerpt is several chapters in length which provides enough detail to get a taste and flavor of the full length novel.
Most of the authors showcased in this book are new to me so I was eager to read what each of them had to offer. I wasn’t too keen on the non U.S. based stories for some reason. Maybe it had to do with location familiarity. And one excerpt happened to be the 19th installment which I shied away from being that I probably would be lost at the get-go.
Several books stood out for me and I’ll probably snag copies of them sometime soon via my local library. Notable for me were: Vinyl Resting Place by Olivia Black; Against the Currant by Olivia Matthews; Muffin But the Truth by Ellie Alexander; and Primer and Punishment by Diane Kelly.
The Cozy Case Files sampler is the best way to discover new cozy mystery authors and books. Who knows? Your next best read could be waiting out there for you. Four solid stars.
I received a digital ARC from St. Martin’s Press through NetGalley. The review herein is completely my own and contains my honest thoughts and opinions.
