My first panel ever was a huge success, and I loved chatting with my fellow panelists. Thank you, Penny Warner, for the lovely gifts to your panelists.

Shout out to @admwriting for taking the solo photo of me as a panelist.

It was a joy meeting my client, Erica, in person!

The day wrapped up with the Opening Ceremonies. Calgary gifted our guests of honors and special guests with signature white hats.

File this under "I couldn't help myself"

There's a bar across the street from one of my favorite bookstores and every time I walk past their door, I read the "Pour decisions this way" sign and of course think of @adrianandover's POUR CHOICES, a cozy mystery set in a speakeasy-style bar where murder is always on the specialty cocktail/mocktail menu.

And huge apologies to Adrian Andover for my hand covering his name! For the record (record shop mysteries pun very much intended) it was really hard to get this shot while my other arm was full of books.

Happy National Cozy Mystery Day! 🕵️‍♀️☠️🔍🧪🧁🦮

Today is a celebration of my favorite genre, cozy mysteries!

Cozy mysteries feature an amateur sleuth as they solve a murder mystery. The murder typically happens off page so they are not graphic or violent and the focus is on the sleuthing. Apart from the mystery the true heart of a cozy is the setting, characters & ongoing community.

There is so much I could say about these books but instead I’ll just say thank you.

🔍Thank you to the authors who create the worlds I love to live in and the characters I wish I knew in person.
🔍Thank you to the publishers who keep publishing these books.
🔍Thank you to the cozy community for sharing my love and always being willing to talk about the books with me.

It's August. The heat is on, the days are long, and the only thing better than air conditioning is a charming little murder (the gentle, cozy, tea-and-cookies kind, of course).

I’ve put together a carousel of cozy mysteries that are perfect for the last sunny stretch of summer.

Swipe through and tell me:

☀️ Which cozy reads are you putting on your TBR?
