This week I’m featuring three cozies that caught my attention with their titles.
I love a good, quirky title. To be specific, one that can make me smile or
release an inner snicker at the puniful twist the author used. Not only does it
give a good sense of what the book is about, but it also gives the reader a
taste of the author’s sense of humor. I dare you not to see the humor in these
three mysteries;)
Merry
Muffin
In the latest from the national bestselling author of Much Ado
About Muffin, newlywed baker Merry Wynter has some unwanted guests
looking for ghosts at Wynter Castle…
While Merry is distracted by her quickly planned marriage to Virgil Grace and
a blissful honeymoon in New York, her friend Pish invites the ghost-hunting crew
from the TV show Haunt Hunt to investigate Merry's home, Wynter Castle. Merry
soon discovers that not only is the crew out of sync, there are so many feuds
and squabbles, it's a miracle they get a show produced at all.
It all goes from bad to worse when the show's psychics claim to have contact
with people murdered on Merry's property. When two cast members are found dead,
Merry and Virgil must figure out who’s picking off the Haunt Hunt team
before their hard-earned happily ever after is cut short.

Undercover Dish
#3
Secret chef Lilah Drake has a killer casserole to deal with in the latest
Undercover Dish mystery from the author of Cheddar Off Dead....
Customers trust Lilah Drake to keep her mouthwatering meals under
wraps, but when a millionaire meets his untimely end, some sinister secrets
become the main course. . . .
Spring is right around the corner, and with the warmer temperatures come
plenty of food requests from Lilah Drake's covered-dish clients. Lilah pulls out
all the stops with a sweet new casserole for the birthday party of Marcus
Cantwell, a wealthy curmudgeon who has some angry ex-wives and more than a few
enemies.
When he's found facedown in Lilah's casserole, it's anyone's guess as to who
might have wanted the old man dead. A possible new heir to Marcus’s fortune adds
some unexpected spice to the investigation, but Lilah fears that the old adage
is true, and "the proof is in the pudding."

Bookmobile Cat
#6
As Laurie Cass continues the national bestselling Bookmobile Cat mystery
series, librarian Minnie Hamilton is happy to take her bookmobile for a spin
with her rescue cat, Eddie—but her tenacious tabby always seems to find
trouble...
As the bookmobile rolls along the hills of Chilson, Michigan, Minnie and
Eddie spread good cheer and good reads. But when her faithful feline finds his
way into the middle of a murder, Minnie is there, like any good librarian, to
check it out.
Eddie turns a routine bookmobile stop into anything but when he makes a quick
escape and hops into a pickup truck…with a dead body in the flatbed. The
friendly local lawyer who was driving the pickup falls under suspicion. But
Minnie and Eddie think there's more to this case than meets the eye, and the
dynamic duo sets out to leave no page unturned.
