Summer Reading: Cozy Mysteries

A cozy mystery is a sub-genre of crime fiction. Violence is downplayed and victims are frequently killed in ways that do not leave massive injuries. Oftentimes they may have an overarching theme such as food, a hobby, a sport or the like. These types of mysteries are more often than not a series, and the reader does not have to read them in order.
