Happy Tuesday, y’all! This week, Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl is asking us to discuss cozy or atmospheric reads. While I love a good atmospheric read, I really love a great cozy mystery. I’ve been on a cozy mystery kick recently. But these cozy mystery series are ones that I have read multiple books from.
Cozy mysteries are, well, cozy! They are books one tends to curl up with under a snuggly blanket, accompanied by a cup of tea (or some other warm drink) nearby. Perfect for a wet spring day! Or a cold winter day, for that matter.

The Farm To Table mysteries sound like something I might enjoy.
Here’s a link to my TTT post

I think I would like the Campers & Criminals series. I also liked the one Alan Bradley book I read.
I love the Amanda Flower’s books and also the Campers and Criminals books. I am just getting ready to start the Halloween Bookshop books!
I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I did.
This is such a brilliant post, Pam! I agree that cosy mysteries are perfect for curling up with under a blanket.
I was instantly drawn to the **Grilled Cheese Mysteries** by Linda Reilly. As I am addicted to cheese, a series based around a cheese theme is one I simply have to read. That one, starting with *Up to No Gouda*, is now right at the top of my list!
I also love the sound of the *Farm to Table Mysteries*
Thanks for all of these wonderful recommendations. I hope you continue to enjoy reading them.
I haven’t read any of these but I do like the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop series. 🙂
I think a lot of these would just make me hungry!
Some do leave you craving the delicious food mentioned in the book.
I’m curious about Fifty-Four Pigs.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday
I feel like I’m always intrigued by cosy mysteries but they always only end up on my TBR and I never actually get around to reading the majority of them (YET!) 🫣 Up to No Gouda sounds like lots of fun but I’m always a sucker for those punny titles, lol.
Although Cozy Mysteries are not normally my thing, your list is so very inviting 💚.
I am going to look into Dr. Bannerman Vet Mystery Series by Philipp Schott – vetanarian medicine is what I want to be my thing.
These all look delightful.
Chaos at the Lazy Bones Bookshop looks so fun! I’ve been meaning to try more cozy mysteries, they all look so great!
Great picks! I love reading cozy mysteries in the fall; they just seem to fit the season so well. I’m currently reading Chaos at the Lazy Bones Bookshop, and I can see why its series made your list!
These all sound so good. I love the titles and the covers!
Have a great week!
Look at all these cozy mysteries! Ahh I love it. I just started reading cozy mysteries recently and I have yet to find one I don’t like.

Those grilled cheese books seem like they’d be a ton of fun! 🙂 That gouda title is so cute. Thanks so much for visiting my list today!
I adored the Grilled Cheese series!
I always felt the need to make a grilled cheese sandwich reading the series.
Same. Very much same.
Great list, Pam! My library patrons love cozy mystery books. Happy Tuesday!
I haven’t actually read any of these but I’ve heard some good things about the Arsenic & Adobo one and the Tonia Kappes series and also the Alan Bradley one.
The grilled cheese series sounds fun – Up To No Gouda is a brilliant title! 😆
Be prepared to get hungry! There’s also recipes at the end of each book in the series.
Those kitchen mysteries look delightful
I love a good cozy mystery series, Pam. There are a couple on here that I’m not familiar with, so thanks for sharing them.
I am not a huge cozy mystery reader, but I have read Farm to Table. Have a great week!
Mysteries are such a cozy vibe!! I’m not sure why, but I love sitting down with a good mystery when I’m looking for a cozy read.
I need to pick up more cozy mysteries! Thank you for these recs.
Great list! I love cozy mysteries, and you’ve managed to create a whole list where I have only read one (The Grilled Cheese Mysteries). I had to add Farm to Trouble and the ScotShop mysteries to my TBR, they sounded too good to pass up on.
Sounds like we enjoy the same kinds of books, Pam. These are all new to me. Thanks for sharing and for visiting my blog.
I haven’t read any cozy mysteries, but I always appreciate their titles and themes. They look so fun 🙂
